Description:	In the following example both stdout and stderr are redirected to append to the same file: `exec sh -c {echo hello; echo goodbye >&2; echo hello again; echo goodbye again >&2} >>output 2>>output` The file named "output" contains both "goodbye" lines, but no "hello lines".

Thanks! ferrieux added on 2017-08-24 16:58:00: Fixed on trunk as http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/info/844c1fa97fb4dd24 ferrieux added on 2017-08-24 16:43:14: Looks like commit 6c8172e1 added O_APPEND support only to ">>", overlooking "2>>". Duplicating the code.
