It looks like a bug in the HTML generation program (makeinfo). I took
a quick look, and it could be something to do with a confusion in
the handling of keys that have spaces in them. But the problem is
that the generated HTML is not straightforward, and I'm not a big
specialist either. I had already installed the latest version,
so the only upgrade possible would to be use a snapshot, which
I am not keen on doing.
