Ah, so in my case, I run that snippet when I want *other* threads to write to stdout/stderr buffers instead of showing up in the terminal. In your case, you could rebind vim's *err* to its *out*, since you say anything sent to *err* doesn't show up (unless it's not seeing vim's binding), but *out* shows up fine.
