I'm not sure which it would be either. Perhaps someone on the list who is

the solution would have to be similar to what you've done with capturing
STDERR since writing to STDERR is probably built into the Postgres server.

Yes, it is. I use a similar solution to quiet PostgreSQL NOTICEs when building a database:

open STDERR, "| perl -ne 'print unless /^NOTICE: /'"
or die "Cannot pipe STDERR: $!\n";

However, in PostgreSQL 7.3, there will be a database handle constructor that will turn this off. But not to redirected it elsewhere, I'm afraid. Your solution is probably best for now.

HTH,
