Symptoms:

When doing C-h for the first time, the "dir" node is shown.  The menu item
and tool bar item back in history is enabled.  Selecting Back in history in
the menu, pressing the tool bar putton, or just using the key l gives:
byte-code: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

The menu item looks like this:
   ["Back in history" Info-history-back :active Info-history
    :help "Go back in history to the last node you were at"]

but when entering "dir" for the first time, the value of Info-history is
not nil, but ((nil nil 1)).  The first nil is supposed to be a file name
and it is when info tries to use it as such the error message above shows
up.  How Info-history becomes ((nil nil 1)) instead of just nil I don't know.
