[Distutils] [issue73] setup.py --name prints warning messages to stdout, rather than stderr

[Sridhar Ratnakumar]

New submission from Sridhar Ratnakumar <sridharr at activestate.com>:

Warning messages must be printed to stderr. This allows for a programattic way
to find setup.py metadata.

> pwd
../dap.plugins.sql-0.2.1

> apy setup.py  --name 2> /dev/null
'dap.plugins' is declared as a package namespace, but 'dap' is not: please
correct this in setup.py
dap.plugins.sql

> echo $?
0
