Magic white space

[Daniel J S. <dan...@ie...>]

For the latest CVS, documentation is failing to compile with the following error:

Wrote /usr/local/src/gnuplot-junk/gnuplot/docs/gnuplot.texi
/bin/sh /usr/local/src/gnuplot-junk/gnuplot/missing --run makeinfo -I. ./gnuplot.texi --no-split --output=gnuplot.info
./gnuplot.texi:10534: Cross reference to nonexistent node `origin' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
[snip]
./gnuplot.texi:3082: Cross reference to nonexistent node `origin' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
makeinfo: Removing output file `gnuplot.info' due to errors; use --force to preserve.

The solution is a strange one.  Placing a white-space character *after* "6 origin":

Anyone have an idea why that might be?  If no one wants to investigate, attached is probably the shortest patch I have and will ever have written.

Not really.  
But I note that the doc2texi.el script only seems to make provision for
5 levels of keywords, whereas this one is at level 6.
