Under the `help-echo' entry there is this cross-reference: "For details
see Text help-echo".  That link takes you to the `prepare-change-group'
entry of node `Atomic Changes', which does not seem to have anything to
do with `help-echo' or displaying a help string in the echo area.



In GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (i686-pc-mingw32)
 of 2015-04-11 on LEG570
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
Configured using:
 `configure --prefix=/c/usr --host=i686-pc-mingw32'

Neither can I.  I suspect that Drew has an Info file with DOS EOLs,
which would cause the cross-references to anchors place you at the
wrong location.

Closing.
