My system has no "/dev/stdin". I actually didn't know that until I
encountered this problem. I've used the machine for months and it's
been thoroughly exercised during this time, so I'm thinking that
/dev/stdin is not normally required, nor should it be depended upon
unless there's no alternative.
dlocate simply calls "md5sum", which accepts "-" as an argument to "-c".
Here's the (trivial) patch:
