info -o: exit status 0 on error

Dear developers,

"info -o" exits with status 0 when it can't find the node:

    $ info -o /dev/null lolcow
    info: No menu item 'lolcow' in node '(dir)Top'

    $ echo $?
    0

In contrast, if I omit the -o option, it exits with status 1, as it should:

    $ info lolcow
    info: No menu item 'lolcow' in node '(dir)Top'

    $ echo $?
    1

The issue was reported for texinfo 6.8, but is reproducible w/ latest
checkout the git master. Please keep me in Cc, I'm not subscribed to
the list.

H.
