Consider the following source:

.. index::
   single: clause
   single: suite
   single: ; (semicolon)

which can be seen in Python documentation sources

When processed by LaTeX writer the semi-colon is mistakendly interpreted as separator and as a result an invalid empty index entry arises.

When the PDF is built with latex_use_xindy = True this causes failed build with this error:

ERROR: CHAR: index 0 should be less than the length of the string

This arose in discussion of #5561 issue.
