help: info support broken


Hi,

since the last update (last week) my info support is broken. Allthough I
have recreated the dir file (FAQ) and all menu items appear, none if them is
actually working. Calling info I get now (suddenly localized !?!) following
screen:

============== snip ======================
File: dir,      Node: Top       Dies ist der Beginn des INFO-Baums

  Dieser Verzeichnis-Knoten zeigt ein Menü aller Hauptpunkte an.
  Beenden mit "q", "?" listet alle Info-Befehle auf, "d" kehrt nach hierher
  zurück, "h" gibt eine Einsteiger-Hilfe,
  "mEmacs<Return>" besucht das Emacs-Manual, etc.

  Im Emacs kann man mit mouse-button-2 auf einen Menüpunkt oder einen
  Querverweis klicken, um einen solchen auswählen.

* Menü:

============== snap ======================

Navigating to any of the entries I get the reply: "Kein Menü in diesem
Knoten." ==> "No menu at this node." Also no call of info with argument
actually works. The screen above is always presented with this error message
in the status line.

Some other problems are quite obvious:
- German umlauts are mangled: "Menü" should be "Menü"
- Main sections are not merged resulting in a lot of "Miscellaneous"
sections

I am not quite sure, if this behaviour is a result of the localization of
(tex)info, but I doubt that anyone has this effect. A Google/archive search
did not help either, every mail has "info" in the footer :(

Any hint/help welcome!

Regards,
Jörg
