As the attached picture shows.

to reproduce this bug:

    1: C-h i
    2: select the "The Info Directory" by mouse
    3: repeat step 2

I can't reproduce this, but suspect the problem is that the face for Info headings explicitly specifies "Helv", which on Windows is by default substituted by "MS Sans Serif". If a real "Helv" font is installed, this causes confusion in the font APIs, with some calls getting results for the substituted font, and others getting the real one. The fix for bug#2219 may have fixed this already, but I added a further explicit check for "Helv" substitutions since it is a well-known substitution, and in some installations may be substituted by a truetype font, which won't be caught by the current test.

Please let me know whether you can still reproduce the bug in a fresh checkout.
