This fixes two issues:
 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1592433
This is a bug in fix-info-dir --delete
(Hunk 3)
 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1614162
This is a weird infinite loop that happens when fix-info-dir is run with stderr
redirected to /dev/null while /dev/null doesn't exist (or isn't a device)
(Hunks 1 and 2)
