Yes and it was/is OK for all installed packages.

I have just found the cause:

From strace output it can be observed that version 6.1
get an access violation exception after trying to read from the .infokey file.

And then, info-6.1 crashes if the .infokey file contains the lines that 
disable the default key bindings by overriding them with the action 'invalid'
according to as described in info-stnd manual.

Perhaps it is an upstream bug.
