I've noticed this bug too but hadn't gotten around to reporting it; glad
you did :).  It's puzzled me more than once in debugging various
problems.

Along those same lines, missing map files on the command apparently
aren't reported either:
$ dvips -u nonesuchmap test.dvi -o /dev/null

Tomas, will you have a chance to take a look at these?

Thanks,
Karl
