Sorry if I was confusing, I was in a hurry.  I was just making a general
statement because I don't know how the error reporting stuff will be done for
NSE, and it may or may not be in just the regular script output (or at least
this is what I've thought of when thinking about it).  So yeah, if the error
stuff just gets put in the regular script output then it should all the same.
