I have just found the cause:
From strace output it can be observed that version 6.1
get an access violation exception after trying to read from the .infokey file.
And then, info-6.1 crashes if the .infokey file contains the lines that
disable the default key bindings by overriding them with the action 'invalid'
according to as described in info-stnd manual.
Perhaps it is an upstream bug.
Thanks for the report. I can confirm this on 64-bit Cygwin but not
32-bit. I'll look into it.
