Currently, the cconfig tool prints the configuration to stderr.

This is a strange behavior as it becomes difficult to work with the traditional suite of command line tools as debug messages are interspersed with the actual configuration directives.

An example:

# cconfig -c /etc/xrootd/xrootd-origin.cfg 
all.manager redirector.example.com+ 1213
xrd.port 1094
all.role server
continue /etc/xrootd/config.d
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-common-site-local.cfg ...
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-docker-env-var.cfg ...
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-origin-docker-env-var.cfg ...
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-origin-site-local.cfg ...
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/10-osg-xrdvoms.cfg ...
Config continuing with file /etc/xrootd/config.d/40-stash-cache-plugin.cfg ...
xrd.tcpmonlib ++ /usr/lib64/libXrdTCPStats.so 
...

Now yes, I can redirect stderr to stdout and then start grepping out known debug messages ("Config continuing with ..."). In terms of user interface, it's just strange/unexpected behavior for a Unix command line tool to use stderr for the output.
