Hello Guix,
The Texinfo manual says [0] that I should be able to use @abbr, and
prefer it over @acronym when the text is not all capital letters, but I
get a backtrace when I try to use it in a package description:
Toggle snippet (36 lines)
Backtrace:

If this isn't an oversight, and not all Texinfo markup is supported,
that should be noted in the manual.
