It was never node names.  It always looked at menu entries in the
top-level menu of the specified manual.

Looks like a bug to me.  There's a new feature whereby if the
argument is _not_ found in the top-level menu, then the Info reader
searches the index.  But it looks like the implementation needs to be
improved.

Btw, if you say 'info/ginfo doc/texinfo.info internat', you get where
you wanted.  So it looks like an ambiguous match in the top-level menu
is interpreted as a failure, or something to that effect.

Yes, see above.
