I just double checked on two amd64 machines running Debian wheezy.  Both
were last upgraded on [2012-07-31 Tue].  Both machines have the same
emacs-version (23.4.1) and org-version (7.8.11).  Both machines have the
same value for Info-directory-list and Info-default-directory-list.

Yet, on one I get the info pages for org-mode 6.33x and on the other for
7.8.11.  The latter machine was freshly installed 2012-07-19, the former
2010-12-30 (and has seen more or less biweekly upgrades ever since).
Neither machine's .emacs file tweaks any of the info functionality that
I'm aware of.

So, I'm not sure that this is (still) an issue with Debian's org-mode
package.  At least on a recent wheezy installation it does not show.  I
don't have access to an Ubuntu 12.04 (pangolin) machine right now but
maybe I can check tonight.

Hope this helps,
