Found it in my archives: see the thread "Re: touch.exe fails for win2000"
around April 2000.

Btw, I cannot find it in my records, but I'm pretty much sure someone
reported that redirection of stderr doesn't work on W2K as well.  So
trying "redir -e foo", and the equivalent mantra inside Bash, would
probably be a good idea.  It could be even the same problem as with 
"> /dev/null" we are discussing now.
