Seriously? Nobody mentioned that, by design, asciidoc is semantically just a human-friendly version of DocBook XML?
That means perfect fidelity conversion to DocBook and easy construction of a toolchain to output anything DocBook tooling can do. (Which, when you consider that Pandoc accepts DocBook, is quite a lot.)
Heck, I don't know how well it works, but there already exists a DocBook->TexInfo converter OTHER THAN Pandoc which is mature enough to have made it into Debian as docbook2x and Ubuntu as docbook2x-texi. (It also does manpages, thus the split)
