Default setting of dgnushack.el occurs errors because variable
`custom-file' indicates "/dev/null".
In my environment, /dev/null is readable so check code of custom.el
does not work. So I write following code. Do you think about it?

"/dev/null" is supposed to be readable, but empty. Loading an empty
file is a no-op on Emacs. Is it different with MULE?
If "/dev/null" causes problems, just use a bogus file name, like
"/DOES NOT EXIST!".

In Mule 2.3 based on 19.30, 19.31 and XEmacs 20.0 with Mule, error
occurs.
