Herb, I just realized that this may be my fault after all; I print messages
only after seeing a newline, since I have to pass them from the privileged
tool back to the GUI via IPC.  So regardless of what tlmgr does, I can't
show these incrementally unless it prints "starting foo" and "ending foo"
separately.
