Ugh, I didn't even think to check the spec, thanks for looking (I should
have been tipped off by the presence only of a long option).
I'm not sure what the best solution is...adding --quiet makes it totally
unportable, but that message almost looks like an error. We can redirect
stderr, but then we potentially miss real errors. I guess we could grep
it out.
