Yes. Karl Berry has fixed this some time ago and teTeX-3.0 contains a
good version of texinfo.tex. Unfortunately, several software packages
come along with their own (obsolete) copy of texinfo.tex.

If some texi2dvi run results in a pdf file (instead of dvi), it usually
helps just to remove the obsolete copy of texinfo.tex and to rerun
texi2dvi.
