. This one.  You can remove the 'E*' line though, while initially all
. messages are selected to be printed to a log, all messages initially
. are deselected to be printed to stderr.

Therefore, I guess that one way to summarize this behavior would be to
say that the log filter space and the stderr filter space are distinct,
and that they default to opposite initial conditions (all messages
logged, no messages sent to stderr).

Thank you very much.
