Hi Mathieu,

Thanks for filing the bug. In the past (c.f. #911829), failing on stderr
has identified problems in MediaWiki when a new PHP version is released,
so I would like to keep the current behavior if possible.

Do you have any ideas or suggestions on other ways we could avoid this
problem? Would `sudo ... 2>&1` for all invocations be good enough?

Thanks,
-- Kunal
