Why I am getting "ERROR: CHAR: index 0 should be less than the length of the string"

Consider this minimal example:

\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article}
\usepackage{makeidx}
\makeindex
\def\prior{پیشینی}
\begin{document}
Testing
\index{probability!{\prior}}
\printindex
\end{document}

after producing test.idx, when I run: xindy -L english -C utf8 -M texindy test.idx

I get:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

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

makeindex has no problem with this so is this a bug of xindy or I am doing something incorrectly? (I am using TeXLive2011)

Thanks

this works for me:  \index{probability!\prior}

Yes, that works but I was wondering why it does not work with grouping.
