Hi,

To reproduce the issue, run 'info texinfo' (I have 6.3 installed).
Then type: /unbalanced <Enter>.  That is: search for the word
"unbalanced', lowercase.  Then type } several times and see how
info cycles through the three occurrences.  Okay.  Type T and
now search for the word "Unbalanced", with a capital, and type
} again several times.  Upon the second }, info will say that
the search failed.  (And if you have match-style=red,bold in
your ~/.infokey file, the red will disappear.)  Strange!  I
expected it to cycle through the two occurrences.

Now search for the word "addendum", lowercase, and type }
twice.  Again: search failed.  But the two occurences are
two hundred lines apart, they are not both visible at the
same time.  So the rule seems to be: if all occurrences are
within a single node, don't cycle through them.  What is
the reasoning behind that?

Benno
