Writing error messages to stdout might corrupt a program's output stream.
Unix style applications use stdout for their own output, libraries should never touch it explicitly.
Having a configurable error stream allows programs to handle the error messages any way they like.

Defaults to std::clog, the buffered version of std::cerr, which is preferred for non-critical logging.
