Good catch. I'm not sure what (if anything) we want to do with the
stderr output, but putting it in the buffer with the JSON is
definitely not the right thing. Your fix looks fine to me - would you
mind doing a commit and sending a patch to the list?

David, it would probably be good to get this (pretty trivial) fix in
before 0.13, since it will include the JSON reply stuff.
