Good idea, I guess, as it allows to separate normal and debug output. 
I've changed it in the development release of pca now (20091001-01).

There's a small disadvantage, though - to get combined output into a 
file (or piped into "more") one has to use ">&" and "|&" or "2>&1" now 
depending on the shell family.
