 * to go to stdout. This is the "traditional" mechanism used by
 * Unices.

 * Calling this causes all output to go to stdout. This is simpler,

/*
 * This allows the user to specify a set of functions to use for
 * formatted printing and non-formatted printing of errors and
 * other messages.
 *
 * It is up to the caller to ensure that all of the functions
 * make sense. All four functions must be specified.
 *
 * * `new_print_message_fn` takes a string and prints it out to the "normal"
 *    output stream.
 * * `new_print_error_fn` takes a string and prints it out to the error output
 *    stream.
 * * `new_fprint_message_fn` takes a printf-style format string and the
 *    appropriate arguments, and writes the result out to the "normal" output.
 * * `new_fprint_error_fn` takes a printf-style format string and the
 *    appropriate arguments, and writes the result out to the "error" output.
 * * `new_flush_msg_fn` flushes the "normal" message output.
 *
 * Returns 0 if all goes well, 1 if something goes wrong.
