By the way, if stdout_to_stderr is by default set to true, but tnis
regression fix allows specific callers to opt out of it, then the
title "make stdout_to_stderr optional" is a bit misleaing.  It makes
it sound as if it is false by default and optionally turned on.

Perhaps like "hook: allow stdout_to_stderr optionally off" or
something?

Thanks.
