I tried it, and saw no change in a small manual run.

Anyway, as Maxim explained better, this is going to merge the
2 streams on the builder, not on the board which actually
runs the test. So I think embedding the "2>&1" as part of
command executed remotely is better.

I need to check how I can run a full validation with this
change in our environment.
