give me a break. can't find the error messages in stderr because of
all the other stuff? oh dear. why not put all the crap on some other
file descriptor and let stderr be what it should be? that's
why we have stdout and stderr; so we don't have to do this horseshit
on stdout. luckily the solution for stdout works for stderr;
don't multiplex.
