The error is not actually within ox-texinfo in this case however I suspect.
The exact same code (at the location of the error in ox-texinfo) appears
within
ox-latex and ox-ascii.

`(org-trim contents)', which removes whitespace at start and end of string,
in this case with the string being the contents of the list item.  When
there is
no contents there is no string to clean up.
