I had the following issue under GNU/Linux, but not macOS:

1. C-h i
2. M-x buffer-face-mode RET (to enable a variable-width font)
3. m Info RET
4. g Help-Inv RET
5. Scroll to the bottom of the buffer with the mouse-wheel, then up again.

In step 5, I could scroll all the way to the bottom of the buffer (as
far as scrolling with the mouse wheel brings you), but scrolling back
to the top of the buffer would get stuck in the middle somewhere.
Even pressing DEL would not work.

The issue seems to happen only on some nodes.
