As far as I can tell, there is nothing actually in the wrong order for
all the ~250 given warnings - but I have not been through them all
individually yet...  In fact, the patch just explicitly states the order
already present.

What appears to throw the new texinfo off is @menu sections within
@subsections.  So there is a main @menu and sub-"@menu"s.  I'm not
actually sure texinfo is supposed to handle this - or at least I could
find no documentation regarding that.   But, it works and we get menus
generated in subsections, just with these additional warnings.
