Unfortunately you hit the limitation of HTML Help (or at least I don't 
know any workaround for it). Index can point to precise location of 
term, but you will lost section titles. Second possibility is to have 
correct section titles in pop-up window but indexterm will point to 
whole section containing term. You can select between this two 
possibilities by setting $htmlhelp.use.hhk parameter to 0 or 1.
