But is the *Messages* buffer automatically displayed (as is done when
starting up normally)?  This is the main reason why I think that .emacs
messages should go to stdout.  Especially since the error might even be
something that breaks the server, so you can't connect later on to take
a look at the *Messages* buffer.
