Sorry, I meant to include that... the lines with "key:" and the dashed
lines are stderr, the other are stdout.  So stderr gets out before before
it should be when combining stdout and stderr.

I tried setvbuf and that did the trick.  Incidentally, after that worked,
I commented the setvbuf line out and tried again, and now the fflush()es
work...  Oh well, either I did something stupid or there's a tough bug,
probably the former.

Thanks,
