   I have just installed a fix for this.  

There are still ptoblems with the very case Stefan tried to address.
The next two files are the exact same files I sent to Stefan earlier:

===File ~/experiment.texi===================================
\input texinfo    @c -*-texinfo-*-
@comment %**start of header
@setfilename experiment.info
@settitle An experiment.
@comment %**end of header

@node Top
@top Top

@menu
* name:entry.           description.
@end menu

@node entry
@chapter Entry

This node is called @samp{entry}

@bye
============================================================

===File ~/experiment.info===================================
This is experiment.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.6 from
/home/teirllm/info/experiment.texi.

^_
File: experiment.info,  Node: Top,  Next: entry,  Up: (dir)

Top
***

* Menu:

* name:entry.           description.

^_
File: experiment.info,  Node: entry,  Prev: Top,  Up: Top

Entry
*****

This node is called `entry'


^_
Tag Table:
Node: Top\x7f100
Node: entry\x7f219
^_
End Tag Table
============================================================

Put:

* experiment: (experiment).               Just an experiment

in an appropriate dir file.

Trying to visit `experiment' still produces an infinite loop.

Actually, so does trying to run C-c C-m C-b on experiment.texi.

Sincerely,

Luc.
