We redirect standard error to the main error log  :) See ap_open_logs in
server/log.c :-)  httpd -E also causes stderr redirection for the
start-up phase, /dev/null is the usually the exception :)

Actually, httpd -E /somewhere/somefile should be used in cases where the child
invoked doesn't have stdout, or it isn't going to the place we want it to.

E.g. on a win32 service, there's no stderr handle created.  -E gives us a chance
to inject one :)
