Initial Comment:
I am unsure whether this can be considered an actual bug.

I took a texinfo file from the GNU Bash reference manual and sucessfully converted it using texi2pdf. Then, I ran po4a -k0 over the original (without any localization strings) and tried to convert that file to a pdf file, which utterly fails.

Makeinfo works on the file, though.

But I can't really make out any differences between the original file and the unlocalized po4 output besides line breaks... (You might want to use KDiff3 instead of command line diffing)

Hello, thanks for your report.
This is indeed a bug, I just fixed lib/Locale/Po4a/Texinfo.pm in SVN.  The pdf looks fine to me now, but info generation is broken because of @ifset commands within @menu, I do not know yet how to fix it.
