As I said a few days ago, COMMAND.COM really has *NO* way to redirect
stderr.  At all.  It's totally impossible.  It's even worse than csh.

Thanks for enlightening me about CMD.EXE, though.  It's nice to know
these things, even if I'll never use them personally.

I'd write a patch to fix it so that --help goes to stdout, but I can't
get to the CVS on sourceforge right now.  Last time I checked out LAME
source was so long ago that I don't want to make a patch against such
an ancient relic.
