I cannot use this fix, as @detailmenu is not supported by texi2html,
which is what I use to create the HTML doc for this package.

The problem is not in the manual, it is in the code:
If you have a hierarchically structured manual. and node A occurs before
node B, there is never a reason to put node B as "Prev" of node A, or
node A as "Next" of node B. The order of the nodes is certainly evident
from the input file.
