where a DEVINFO error number can be returned. Zero indicates
success. Non-zero indicates a failure. Error values returned in 'status'
are the same as the CIERROR value when an error occurs. If the
'status' parm is passed, the CI will not set CIERROR and will not report
an error message. If 'status' is not specified the CI performs its normal
error handling.
