If you can't use that one, here's a real cheap one you CAN use. To be
honest, I don't remember where I got it (might even have written it
myself, for all I can remember), but it's got no ownership legends in it
so feel free to use it as you see fit. Further, not that it's not nearly
as flexible as the one with DJGPP, as all it does is channel stderr into
the same place as stdout. But it works.


#include <stdio.h>

main (int argc, char ** argv)
	{
	dup2 (fileno (stdout), fileno (stderr));
	execvp (argv[1], argv + 1);
	}
