Yes, I think I will remove all the v5 specific stuff from the v4 directory at the same time I post 5.0.3. It's been quite a while and people that have version 5 should be aware of updates and really should be using later versions. > > I tried 5.0.2 today, summary: > > -s --stderr missing > -f --foreground works, not mentioned in help text Are you sure you applied the additional foreground logging patch (well actually if you test 5.0.2 you should really apply all the patches listed in patch_order-5.0.2 to get a "current state" view). Are you the same person that originally contributed these patches? I have the name "Denis Vlasenko" in the original patch emails. Anyway, I never quite completely apply the patches but what we have now is fairly close. In particular I haven't provided a distinct "log to stderr". Over the considerable time this has been present I've rarely needed to use the foreground option but when I have I've always wanted to send the log to my tty. Especially since you can just redirect the output if you need to when running in foreground.
