There are a few items in the list that begin with "VC".

No.  In any case, the usual recommended way of looking up something in
an Info manual is by using Info-index ('i'), not by using menus.  So I
just added an index entry to the manual; now you can type "i VC RET"
(with "VC" in upper-case) and get yourself landed where you wanted.

If this is sufficient, we can close this bug report.
