Title:
  netcat silently fails without error message when not using -v

Status in netcat-openbsd package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  $ nc localhost 1234

  $ nc -v localhost 1234
  nc: connect to localhost port 1234 (tcp) failed: Connection refused

  
  even without the -v option I expect nc to report any errors to stderr instead 
of just exiting. i sometimes use nc together with tar as a simple file transfer 
tool and its pretty handy to know what is going on.
