That's because your file doesn't have a Top node, and makeinfo 4.0f
always skips the first TOC entry (due to a bug), which normally is for
the Top node. You don't have a Top node, so your first node is
omitted instead...
The patch below should fix the bug that causes the first entry to be
always skipped (but still leaves alone skipping the Top entry).
However, I'm wondering why is it a good idea to skip the TOC entry for
"Top". Jan, it's your change (you posted it here about a year ago, see
http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-texinfo/2000-December/004124.html),
could you please help understand it? Neither your message nor
ChangeLog explains the rationale for this change, so I wonder why did
you suggest that. Shouldn't the user be able to return to the Top
node via the TOC?

* makeinfo/toc.c (contents_update_html): Fix the condition for
omitting duplicate TOC entries. Fix comparison with the TOC entry
for "Top".
