Wouldn't it be better to either collect both stdout and stderr in
the same log file or to use three log files .err.log, .out.log and
.log, where the latter contains the combined streams? Otherwise you are
loosing the context between the two, which sometimes may be important.

(Now hacking on a simple script for doing such logging; similar to
http://tratt.net/laurie/src/supuner/, but simpler and better matching
lilypond needs)

Ciao,

There's often an overwhelming amount of standard output, so it seemed better to keep them separate.
