Problem with this answer: the exit codes and exceptions thrown
by the program being redirected do not seem to be transmitted
through redir. This makes it unusable in situations where you
wish to control execution of the next command based on 
success of the previous command. 

Alternate answer: possibly reconsider the decision to put errors to 
stderr, which, in DOS out of the box, appears to be more suitable for 
fatal errors not diagnostic messages from compilers, etc.
