I don't know what "3.12f" is -- I have 3.12 here, 3.12f is at work -- but
"makeinfo zsh.texi" dies with
./zsh.texi:976: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
./zsh.texi:983: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
./zsh.texi:983: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
(repeats for every use of @value{dsq})
Apparently @'<letter> is now the way to insert an accented <letter>. Same
for @" and @` for different accents.
It appears that the workaround for zsh is as follows (patch against 3.1.6):
Index: ztexi.yo

If anyone knows of a better way to accomplish this, please let us know.

Unfortunately this workaround didn't solve the problem for me at all -
exactly the same errors as before. I'm on 3.12f too. Any ideas?

This is presumably because I don't have yodl installed so zsh.texi
didn't get regenerated. Excuse me while I crawl under a rock and
install yodl.

Just edit zsh.texi and look for the @set dsq ... near the top, and replace
@'@' with '@:' on that line. No need for yodl.
