Hello,

I assume you are talking about the verbose mode and stats.
I will not comment on what is better since I'm never sure myself
what to use.  :)

But I guess one option could be to use a variable for the FILE* to use
for these "log" messages.  The FILE* would default to either stdout or
stderr but it could also be set to other (ex: a disk file) if stdout
and stderr are used for other purposes.
