Bug#801529: xinit: startx fails if stderr is redirected

[Walter <wstemb@gmail.com>]

Package: xinit

Version: 1.3.4-1 armhf

I confirm the symptoms form the filled bug 801529, except that stdout redirection is possible and not influencing the output. Only the stderr redirection influences the startx in any form or syntax.

Some output from the startx command, when the stdout and the stderr are redirected to same file is:

Fatal server error:
(EE) xf86OpenConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Operation not permitted
