Operating system: 
PHP version:      5.2.9
PHP Bug Type:     Scripting Engine problem
Bug description:  write errors to STDERR, by default

Description:
------------
I can't believe that PHP writes its error messages to STDOUT by default
instead of STDERR. (At least you don't have them BOTH reversed.)

$ php lyrics.php |colrm 77

Warning: Unexpected character in input:  ''' (ASCII=39) state=1 in

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /home/jidanni/audio/
$ php -r WRONG

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in Command line code on line 1

At least on the _man page_ mention you are doing it on purpose because you
fear it will flood some log or something.
