[patch #5524] Error file command line option

[Ben Pfaff]

Follow-up Comment #1, patch #5524 (project pspp):

There's something that bothers me about this.  I think it's that we're not
using the standard streams the way we're supposed to: output should go to
stdout, errors to stderr.

What if, instead of applying this patch, we just fixed the problem with the
streams:
