info --index not finding all indexed entries

Hello Karl, bug-texinfo readers,

when I type
  info Automake --index AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

and use ',' to cycle the index entries, I still never arrive at the most
important one, which is in the "Public Macros" node.  This happens with
info from 4.11 or 4.13.

automake.texi (you can use the latest stable, or git, doesn't matter)
contains code as below.  If that is not enough to reproduce the problem
I'll be glad to try to produce a small example, but I'd first like
confirmation that this isn't a user error.

... time passes ...

It turns out that if I remove the first '@acindex AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE',
then things start to work.  Does that mean index entries have to be
uniquely named?

Thanks for maintaining texinfo!
Ralf

@acindex AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
The one real requirement of Automake is that your @file{configure.ac}
call @code{AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE}.  This macro does several things that are
required for proper Automake operation (@pxref{Macros}).

Runs many macros required for proper operation of the generated Makefiles.
