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,
Berny
