My original code indeed uses @le in @math.  I've just made the example
simpler by adding two `$' characters.

The very problem is that I have to use @set and @value to circumvent
the `makeinfo -E' problem.  Anything defined with @set is put into a
group while expanding with @value.  Adding \mathrel would be fine, but
makeinfo doesn't understand this -- and within the @set group it has
no effect.
