>From my own previous reply:
Is there a reason for this? Why does Info, or why would any other
special buffer, _need_ to do this?
OK I believe I understand now. It believe it is because the Info
buffer keeps visiting _different_ files during its lifetime. I
nevertheless believe this should be pointed out in the Elisp manual in
the section on overlays, unless we could think of some way to get
around the problem.
Sincerely,
Luc.
