Cannot connect with r27603 v2

With r27616 I get:

(same with r27676)

However, running this manually gives:

xpra initialization error:
 no such option: --headerbar

Would you please sync those errors back on the client log? If you are somehow afraid of server-exposing-unnecessary-information-to-user-via-error thing, would you "at least" force a server log to be created and have these appended?

no such option: --headerbar

Should be fixed in r27677.

Would you please sync those errors back on the client log?

Ah, you're using putty rather than the default paramiko backend.

So I did a bit of digging and r3156 (7 years ago!) claims that we can't use sys.stderr on win32. (it was actually first added in r2762 - 8 years ago - but that commit doesn't state why)
So we were sending it to a pipe, which we then ignored, r27678 fixes that.

[stdedos]

Still a fix is wanted:

Sorry about that.
How odd, I'm certain that I had tested this on win32 and Linux before the commit.
Anyway, r27699 fixes this.

[stdedos]

Oops, forgot to close it :-D

Verified as working.
