Hi Marcus -- thanks for the report. I think this is fixed in the current CVS sources.

Best,

If you walk through the document with the [ key, info has a high probability of crashing with a segfault. Just jump to any node in the middle of a file like emacs.info, and press [, or press ] often and then [ a couple of times.

This is really easy to reproduce, and the crash can happen in different locations, so I spare you the backtraces. It seemed to me that internal data structures get corrupted (usually it crashed trying to resolve "entry" derived from a menu[i]).
