I cannot reproduce this, that link does work for me.  I tried both
Emacs 24.4 and the latest 25.1, and the Info reader built into Emacs
works correctly in both cases.

So there's something here at work that is specific to your system or
to the particular Emacs distribution you are using.  Or maybe you are
not using the Emacs Info reader?
