texinfo CVS & DJGPP: info & spurious error message about ~/_info? |

Hello.
I'm using info from texinfo CVS built against DJGPP 2.03. If I start up
info from the first line of a DOS box's command prompt, I see this:
File: dir, Node: Top, Next: (dir), Prev: (dir), Up: (dir)
info: c:\users\rich/_info: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
Welcome to the GNU standalone Info program. The documentation
presented here is part of the djgpp development package.
To view a topic, use the arrow keys to position the cursor on one of
the lines beginning with a '*' and press 'm' and then 'Enter'.
This (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics. Typing "d"
returns here, "q" exits, "?" lists all INFO commands, "h" gives a primer
for first-timers, "mTexinfo<Return>" visits Texinfo topic, etc. To edit
this dir-file, edit 'dir.txi', and pass it through 'makeinfo'.
-- PLEASE ADD DOCUMENTATION TO THIS TREE. (See INFO topic first.) --

* Knowledge Base: (kb).

* libc.a: (libc).

...<rest omitted>...
I'm wondering if this is supposed to appear:
info: c:\users\rich/_info: No such file or directory (ENOENT)
NB: _info is the name for .info on MS-DOS.
If I run info from any line other than the first line of the command prompt,
I do not see the error message.
bash-2.04$ echo $HOME
c:/users/rich
bash-2.04$ test -f $HOME/_info || echo "It's not there!"
It's not there!
I'm running the display in 50x25 under Windows '98 SE.
Thanks, bye, Rich =]
PS: Please CC me on replies, since I'm not subscribed to bug-texinfo.
