This is a feature.  info.el sets isearch-search-fun-function to
Info-isearch-search, which by default searches in a special way (you
should see the "Failing I-search" message in the echo are).  If you
don't want this behavior, try customizing Info-isearch-search to nil.

I think this bug report can be closed.
