>Description:
I often use portverion -L'='|tee /dev/tty|wc -l to count how many ports need to be updated. When a stale lock is left behind, portversion emits a Stale lock message to stdout, but should be sending it to stderr.
>How-To-Repeat:
Issue the command mentioned while portupgrade is running.
>Fix:
Use stderr instead of stdout as the destination for the Stale lock message.
