texinfo.tex version 2.1 fails on g++.texinfo
#690

Well, I guess "fails" is a little strong.  Here is what's happening:

The table of contents generator seems to barf on the letters "C++".
So "Contributors to GNU C++" comes out looking like this:

	Contributors to GNU C@fam @ttfam @tentt +@fam @ttfam @tentt +5

(That is what the hardcopy text looks like.)

On the title page and in the documentation itself, this problem does
*not* occur, either in the running text or in chapter/section titles.

I wish I knew more about tex and texinfo so I could help track this
down.  I guess the only other piece of info I have is that texinfo.tex
version 1.26 seems to work just fine on the same g++.texinfo file.

Any help or suggestions?

P.S.  If this is relevant, I'm running TeX, C version 2.95 on a Sun
3/160 running SunOS 4.0.3.
