Summary: uu.decode prints to stderr

Initial Comment:


Python 2.3 final



The standard library function uu.decode prints a

warning message to stderr if there is an error when

decoding the file. This feels like an incorrect

behaviour for a library function.



The warning message can be supressed by providing a

quiet=True parameter, but this is not currently documented.



The relevant line in uu.py is 138
