Or rather, with the development version 4.13.90, which will eventually
become Texinfo 5.0.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Use '@item' instead of '@itemx' in several places,
as Texinfo 5 refuses to process an '@itemx' that is not preceded by an
'@item'. Ensure that node extended names in menus and sectioning are
consistent, and that ordering and presence of nodes in menus and in the
actual text are consistent as well.
