So if we decide to actually do this, should this be error_report()
instead so that HMP 'qemu-io' gets the errors printed to the monitor
rather than stderr? Though I think in that case, we'd also want to
redirect the messages that still go stdout to the monitor as well.

But as I said in another reply, I'm not sure if mixing stdout and stderr
with their different buffering settings is even a good idea in a mostly
interactive program.
