This behavior is confusing, since it means absolutely everything goes to stderr and makepkg itself is a quiet program that produces no expected output???
The only situation where messages should go to stderr rather than stdout, is with --geninteg which is meant to return the checksums on stdout (but we don't want to totally get rid of status messages when redirecting the results elsewhere, or, worse, redirect status messages to a PKGBUILD). For this specific case, redirect message output to stderr in the --geninteg callers directly.

Actually the pkgver() function saves the stdout of run_function_safe to a variable, and this patch would ensure the variable contains some decidedly not-pkgver content. :(
Have not had time to look into this, but is there an easy/obvious way to adjust pkgver() capturing to stop this? Do we need to special case run_function? A
