Re: Redirect stderr to stdout for {daily,weekly,monthly}.local

["Nikolai N. Fetissov" <nikolai_(_dot_)_fetissov_(_at_)_peachisland_(_dot_)_com>]

My reason for doing this is that some things
I run in /etc/{daily,weekly,monthly}.local,
like smbclient, spew stuff onto stderr breaking
my lovely gpg encryption of {daily,weekly,monthly}
emails.
If that's not enough reason, well, sorry for the noise.
