	Heh, funny, I was just implementing the exact same idea except
backwards.  Great minds and all that.

	I was going to have the *aliases only* printed to stderr, and
everything else to stdout (as it currently is).  Then, anyone (like me)
who wants the aliases into a text file could redirect stderr ONLY into a
text file.

	Either patch, imho, is an excellent solution to the problem.
Which one would people prefer?  (In my experience, newbies know how to
redirect stdout with '>' but not stderr with '2>' in bash, so perhaps
Gary's patch is the one to use?)

P.S.> Will this patch make it into 2.0?
