Well after some odd goings-on, all mention of allinanchor has disappeared off Google now.
allinanchor site:www.google.com

allinanchor site:www.google.com

I probably feel this syntax is wrong, Usually it is allinanchor:<keyword or keyword phrase>
Eg, allinanchor:search engine optimization , allinanchor:<your keyword phrase>, etc

This will show how you rank based on the Anchor Text

That search should bring up pages with "allinanchor" from Google .com, and there's nothing.

Were there ever? "In links to the page" is still one of the options under "Occurrences" on the Advanced Search page, but I'm not sure if information on the allinanchor search was ever listed on the Help Index page, which has a section on Web Search Features. I took a look at the cached copy of that page and it looked the same as it does now. I don't know how old the cache is, but a last changed check on the live page gave me December 17.

Well hopefully others will remember coming across it on G, otherwise I'll start worrying about myself.

The December 17 thing is pretty telling (it's been changed recently, but I don't know how), and of course Google has control over when the page gets cached. I don't know why they'd want to hide information about the function if the function itself is still available, though.
