scrolling behaviour of newer info has changed

Hi,

When with the current (6.0) stand-alone info I just run 'info',
am shown the top node, and type PageUp, it does not beep or
say anything.  An older info (4.13) will beep and say there is
no Prev or Up node here.  Also when reaching the end of the
top node, it will not beep.

When running, say, 'info grep' and typing PageUp, newer info
will beep and say there's no way back.  And also when reaching
the end.

Further, when pressing and holding PageDown, newer info
will keep the cursor on the top line when reaching the end
of the document.  Older info would put it just beyond the
last line.  But then, when pressing and holding PageUp,
older info will put the cursor back on the top line, but
newer info will put and keep it on the bottom line.  Is
this emacsy behaviour intentional?

Even if so, I don't like it.  I expect the cursor to go to the
top when I press PageUp, so that a Tab will then bring me to
the first reference or menu item on that page.

Benno
