// I have noticed the same behavior.  I have also noticed that after the
// initial line to cerr, output to cout also disappears.  However, in a
// strange exception, output from manipulators such as endl still occurs,
// resulting in a blank lines in the output.

// Martin's original example is not reproducible here, but this sample does
// show the problem in our environment.  (Jeff, please annotate this with
// our environmental specifics before forwarding it; it may be significant.)

// The result of ``g++ -v bug017.cc; a.out 2>&1 | cat; a.out'' is attached
// below.  The blank lines are part of the output.
