I don't want redirection. Multilog will grasp stdout, but only of the
parent process (I think); once the latter exits, I don't think the other
process will be accessible.

It doesn't exit. It's just a shell built-in "wait" (no, in fact, it is
a glibc built-in "wait"). The file handles are kind of dup'ed, so
multilog should work just fine.

Thanks again. Writing to this list is never a waste of time!
