It works so I'm happy. Would you mind explaining what was wrong with
using the iflatex form? The infohack function calls
infohack-remove-unsupported to remove the lines marked by iflatex. I
assumed, perhaps that's the problem, that the other tex tools would do
the opposite by keeping the @documentencoding statement while dropping
the iflatex lines.

Well, my apologies for messing everything up. I'll be honest in saying
that I try to avoid coding system issues as much as possible. I only
made the change that I did because emacs refused to save gnus.texi
using iso-8859-1.
