Am I the only one getting these warnings when building the docs?

makeinfo -I /home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/../../readline/doc -I /home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/../mi -I /home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc \
-o gdb.info /home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11908: warning: unlikely character [ in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11908: warning: unlikely character ] in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11919: warning: unlikely character [ in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11919: warning: unlikely character ] in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11926: warning: unlikely character [ in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11926: warning: unlikely character [ in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11926: warning: unlikely character ] in @var.
/home/ezannoni/sources/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:11926: warning: unlikely character ] in @var.

these are the lines that generate the warnings.

@item htrace record @var{[data]*}
@item htrace rewind @var{[filename]}
@item htrace print @var{[start [len]]}

It it easy to eliminate the warnings by using for instance @emph{} instead of
@var{}, but the look of the text changes slightly.

Eli, is there a correct way to fix this?

thanks
