You generate the link target using (href-to (current-node)), which 
creates a link to the, well, current node, which is the indexterm in 
that case.  You probably want to link to the nearest containing 
section.  (It kind of makes sense, the section is node 95, the title 
element is probably node 96, the indexterm is node 97.)  Instead of 
current-node, you need to work with the ancestor or ancestor-member 
functions or use the zone attribute throughout, whichever may be 
appropriate for your document.
