Yes, `ESC-2 C-h i' (or `M-2 C-h i') works in Emacs before the Emacs 22 release.
Dunno if this change was intentional or is a bug - you might check the NEWS file
to see. If it was not intentional, then you might want to report a bug using
`M-x report-emacs-bug'.

In any case, you can still use `C-u C-h i' to do the same thing - it prompts you
for the Info file to use.
