I find this not to be the case. The jump seems to be to the= node location where the @anchor statement is found. >=20 > Which Emacs version do you use?

I am using GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2013-03-= 12 on bob.porkrind.org I guess that means that I should investigate upgrading to 24.4 (to get the = expected behavior of @anchor).
