Just so that you know, I asked the texinfo help list and it appears that the texinfo.tex file that I had was not good (although that's the one I checked out from the git repository).

Karl told me I should use the one on the ftp.gnu.org site, which I did, and all the missing index reappeared.

So there is maybe an issue with the emacs git repository file.
