Bug in stand-alone Info reader

[LaPolla, Justin Anthony]

I found a bug in the stand-alone Info reader. To reproduce:

 

    Open any file in info. For example, 'info gcc'.

 

    Put the cursor at the top of the page.

 

    Issue the 'beginning-of-line' command (e.g. 'M-x beginning-of-line', or 'C-a').

 

    Watch as info freezes and you get a bunch of "bell" in your terminal.

 

I've observed this on Ubuntu, SLES, and RedHat.
