Hm. This does not work on my machine: Debian Wheezy GNU/Linux

Testing the current satus (again):

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output
echo "testing stdout" >&1
echo "testing stderr" >&2
date -g
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

... no stderr on stdout and date error message in second buffer


Creating a wrapper-script similar as described in web-page above:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh
echo '#!/usr/bin/zsh
{
/usr/bin/zsh $1
} 2>&1' > ~/src/misc/zsh_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh
chmod +x ~/src/misc/zsh_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh
cd ~/bin
ln -s ../src/misc/zsh_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh .
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

Setting the sh-command to this wrapper-script:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-babel-sh-command "~/bin/zsh_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh")
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: ~/bin/zsh_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh

Re-testing status:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output
echo "testing stdout" >&1
echo "testing stderr" >&2
date -g
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

... no change except the second buffer for the date error message is
empty. So it's actually worse than before.


Trying with bash (as web-page did):

#+BEGIN_SRC sh
echo '#!/bin/bash
{
/bin/bash $1
} 2>&1' > ~/src/misc/bash_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh
chmod +x ~/src/misc/bash_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh
cd ~/bin
ln -s ../src/misc/bash_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh .
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:

Setting the sh-command to this wrapper-script:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-babel-sh-command "~/bin/bash_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh")
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: ~/bin/bash_stderr_redirected_to_stdout.sh

Same result as with zsh :-(


Re-setting to standard settings to revoke tests from above:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(setq org-babel-sh-command "sh")
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: sh

Re-testing status:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output
echo "testing stdout" >&1
echo "testing stderr" >&2
date -g
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
