The relevent code is pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-info.awk and the 
INFO_FILES_cmd definition at the bottom of plist.mk.  My assumption when 
writing that file was that everything in ${PREFIX}/${PKGINFODIR} was an 
info file.  At the time, I wasn't sure that all info files ended in 
".info".  You can try replacing the pattern that ignores *-1, *-2, etc. 
files with:

# Ignore all files without a ".info" suffix.
/^[^@]/ && ($0 !~ "^" IGNORE_INFO_REGEXP "/") && \
($0 !~ "^([^\/]*\/)*(info\/[^\/]+(\.info)?|[^\/]+\.info)$" {
        next
}

        Cheers,
