Agreed, we should include orgguide.texi alongside org.tex in Emacs's
doc/misc/.  I've cc'd Bastien in case he'd like to adjust the latest
sync, though, given that orgguide has existed for a long time and has
never been included in the Emacs repo (AFAICS), I also don't see a
problem with waiting for the next sync until handling it.

OK, I'll apply that patch.
