Same here with a clean install of 10.5. As far as I can say the files  
in /usr/bin/ are part of 10.5. I just checked on my time machine  
backup: these files appear in /usr/bin from the first backup onwards...

The caveat is that the versions differ:

/usr/bin/texi2dvi is version 1.34
/usr/texbin/texi2dvi is version 1.42

By the way: what do they do? What is texinfo?
