While my manual says that
As a general rule, you should write a period or comma immediately
after an address@hidden' command with two or more arguments.
If there is no such following punctuation, `makeinfo' will generate a
(grammatically incorrect) period in the Info output; otherwise, the
cross-reference would fail completely, due to the current syntax of
Info format.
so it apparently is less rigid in this case, my texinfo does not insert
a period in the output here.
