The doc string says this:

 The directory expansions and topics are cached for
 speed, but a non-nil interactive argument forces the caches to be
 updated (e.g. to re-interpret the current directory).

That ("a non-nil interactive argument") is not the way Emacs talks about
the prefix argument.  The doc should say that if you use a prefix
argument then the cached is updated.

Essentially, "non-nil interactive argument" should be "prefix argument".

In GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (i686-pc-mingw32)

Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
