configured using `configure '-C'

emacs -Q
C-h i d m Elisp RET
i set-text-properties RET
takes me to the set-text-properties entry in the Elisp manual (as
expected).
emacs -Q
C-h S add-text-properties RET ; use info-look to find add-text-properties
C-x b *info* RET ; switch to info buffer
i ; try to lookup something in the index
complains "No index"

Thanks, fixed.
The Info browser was unable to get the information about the index cookie
support, so it treated it as a non-cookie file, and the temporary value of
Info-point-loc (set by navigation from the index node to the defined line
number) mislead into skipping a list of index nodes in the Top node.
