I think this has been misdiagnosed as a rdmd issue a while bag. Consider:

dmd -v -o- doesnotexist.d >doesnotexist.deps

This command produces no stderr traffic and writes to doesnotexist.deps the
following:

binary    dmd
version   v2.053
config    /home/andrei/dmd.conf
parse     doesnotexist
Error: cannot read file doesnotexist.d

The last line should be printed to stderr.
