Hi,

Currently makeinfo warn if @dotless is used with something else than i or
j but don't do any checking for the other accents. 
Here is a list of permitted accents according to 
http://www.sad.it/~jug/lyx/lyxdoc/Reference/node15.html
which seems to be part of the LyX manual.

       'dotless'    => 'ij', 
       'H'          => 'uUoO', 
       'ringaccent' => 'auAU', 
       "'"          => 'aeiouyAEIOUYszSZrlcnRLCN',
       'v'          => 'cszCSZdlnrtDLNRTeE', 
       ','          => 'cCgklnrstGKLNRST', 
       '^'          => 'aeiouAEIOUcghjsCGHJS', # not yY ?
       'dotaccent'  => 'eiEIcgzCGZ', 
       '`'          => 'aeiouAEIOU', # not yY ?
       '='          => 'aeiouAEIOU', 
       '~'          => 'nNaiouAIOU',  
       '"'          => 'aeiouyAEIOUY',  

Maybe makeinfo could warn if this is not respected ?
In that case the texinfo manual should be changed, as it uses forbidden
combinations.

Another note is that 
@aa{} and @ringaccent{a}
@AA{} and @ringaccent{A}
are the same.
