Summary: some latex reject the pdfinfo macro while generating html
Initial Comment:
I was building the documentation on OSX. I use the latest LaTeX
2004 from Wierda's teTeX. There is a pdfinfo command in Doc/
texinputs/manual.cls and Doc/texinputs/howto.cls which chokes my
version of latex.

The patch worked for me (MacOSX 10.4.1, teTeX 3.0).
Thanks.

This patch I got from a tex expert seems to fix it. It
should also be applied to howto.cls.

I also have this problem when trying to build python-ldap's
docs on SuSE Linux 9.3 which ships with tetex-3.0-13 and
te_latex-3.0-13.
You might wanna take note of this:
http://www.latex-project.org/cgi-bin/ltxbugs2html?pr=latex/3640&state=open
It refers to this module:

I get the exact same error. I am running MacOSX with teTeX 3.0 installed
with Fink.
