It used to be common to have Info files with names like `foo`, `foo-1`,
`foo-2`, ...  Splitting Info files has gotten out of fashion due to the
growing size of RAM, and the use of a `.info` extension has grown
a lot too.  Maybe we could start assuming that all those files nowadays
have a `.info` extension?
