Oops, sorry.  But, I can't see the ^M problem in info files.
Actually, on Windows, when I type C-h i, I get this error:

  Can't find the Info directory node

But, when I type C-u C-h i ~/emacs/info/efag RET (I built
Emacs under ~/emacs),  I see no '^M's.

What is the coding system of emacs/info/efag when you visit
that file directly?

Hmmm, I tried with a ChangeLog of that encoding, but still
can't reproduce the bug.
