Many thanks for these tests.

In order to fill a bug report, maybe it would be useful to run a less
specialized xindy test (these ones are maybe too glossaries oriented,
and even too TeX oriented), such as the ones to be found in xindy
documentation. I tried the examples to be found in:

  texdoc -l xindy
  22

(file:///usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf/doc/xindy/style-tutorial.html)

Unfortunately, I couldn't run the first example (§ 2.1 Running xindy):

$ more style1.xdy
;; This is a first example using `xindy'.

(define-location-class "page-numbers" ("arabic-numbers"))
(define-attributes (("definition" "usage")))
$ xindy -t ex1.xlg -M style1 -I xindy
ex1.raw *** - EVAL: variable STYLE1.XDY has no value
