I upgraded to
GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.21) of
2014-10-20 on builder10-9.porkrind.org
and the behavior of @anchor was the same. I tested with perldoc-all.info, with
a texinfo file where I keep a bunch of notes and with the texi file that I
found for emacs-lisp-intro.
At the moment I'm stumped.
