Hi,

I cannot get my-bib-macros.texi to work as expected on an up-to-date
Ubuntu Intrepid i386 laptop running texlive.
my-bib-macros.texi contains a demonstration script which fails thusly:

address@hidden:~$ more foo.texi
\input texinfo   @c -*-texinfo-*-
@comment %**start of header
@setfilename my-file-with-bib.info
@settitle Texinfo with a Bibliography and References
@include my-bib-macros.texi
@mybibuselist{References}
@comment %**end of header
@node Top, Introduction, (dir), (dir)
@top Top
@menu
* Introduction::
* @mybibnode{}::
@end menu
@node Introduction, @mybibnode{}, Top, Top
@chapter Introduction
The ability of a documentation format to make cross references to a
bibliography, a feature of LaTeX @mybibcite{LaTeX2e}, isn't
currently supported in Texinfo.
