According to the docs, AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges captures standard output from the task, but it doesn't say it captures standard error. If the tool is outputting to stderr, then that will probably go to the same place that the parent's stderr is going, which is often the console log (/dev/console, viewable via Console.app). When run under Xcode, stderr goes to Xcode's console window.
