Stephen,

this is just to confirm that texindex is broken for me, too. I have no
solution, sorry.

I compiled it locally, no difference.

This means it thinks the *.cp file is not a valid texinfo file, which is
probably not true. It's probably also a bug in texindex's parsing code.

This is triggered by some of the *.?? files being empty, which is
normal, but the texindex xmalloc chokes on it.
