1. psql: stdout or stderr?

   Hi all
   
   I just noticed that when loading a dump file, all the echoes of the stuff
   in the dump file go to stderr.
   
   Is that really what you want?  I would have thought errors would be sent
   to stderr and that every thing else would go to stdout.
   
   Have a great night

   Yes, this is new.  As I remember, some stuff is sent to stdout, and some
   to stderr, and there was some reason for that, though I can't remember
   what it was.
