ISTM the danger is that someone looks at the regular logs and isn't
aware that some messages went to someplace else. In which case
bleating t
to the someplace else is unhelpful. Perhaps it would be more useful if
it set a flag and then once the regular logs are set up you output a
regular warning that some errors were generated prior to switching and
were sent to stderr.
