Currently they are sent in a single fprintf(stderr), which might or
might not be good enough to ensure atomicity.  We could hack this
to a direct write() if you don't mind depending on fileno(stderr),
but I think that'd create some portability issues on non-Unix
platforms.

If you're using syslog then I think all bets are off anyway.

That's a thought... seems less invasive than the backslashing.  Not sure
how well it'll work for syslog output though.
