The anchorBug.info file resulting from makeinfo works fine on the Terminal.
In emacs versions as shown above, the cross reference
@xref{fshiv,condimentum vehicula}.
gives an error "No such node or anchor"

Works fine for me using:
Debian's Emacs 23.1 + GNU makeinfo 4.13 on one system
Stock Emacs 23.2 + GNU makeinfo 4.8 on another.

I tested with: emacs -Q --eval '(info "./test.info")'
