This doesn't look like a non-fatal error to me. Are you sure
we really want to suppress this with status=none?
Reading the Texinfo manual, I think this change in behavior should
also be documented:
Do not print any informational messages to stderr. Error
messages are output as normal.
It probably should say something like "... any informational nor
warning messages ...".
Otherwise +1.
Have a nice day,
