While the subject is up, I previously submitted a patch [683074] to
allow you to specify an output stream.  Right now dis just uses print,
which made it a little difficult to redirect the output.  Is there any
interest in this feature? If so, I'll update the patch against Skip's.
If not, or if there are objections, the patch can be closed out.
