Hello, Lars!

I think it's an overkill. Errors during option parsing should go to
stderr. This would solve the problem.

Besides, I fail to see what you are doing with conf-log.tmp. If you always
want to delete it, then use /dev/null instead :-)

If you want to rename it to config.log at some point, you should do it
somewhere. But again, this seems to be an overkill.
