This bug was introduced in commit
1b40601ebd
which sets the body-only option to true when called with a simple
prefix argument, however it does not check that the prefix argument
is non-null.
Thanks to Valentin Wüstholz for reporting this bug
This new code will search #+INDEX lines in the buffer. For LaTeX, it
will simple convert these into LaTeX \index{} commands. For other
backends, it will copy thee entries to a new file, with extension
orgx. These files can then later be post-processed to create the index.

I've create some presentation on programming (some more to do) and to my
surprise I've discovered that if org-mode escapes one "&" properly it
doesn't do its job in case of "&&" (and a single "^" too). I get "\&&"
in latex file which of course is wrong.
This support was totally broken. It works now again. Unfortunately
it is not possible to edit the table directly in the org-mode buffer
anymore - to edit such a table, you have to use C-c '
