If you put the package stuff a bit earlier...

Make this never output anything, either returned object or bool tells
us what to do.

And then:
if (easyParse.failed() || package.failed())
LyX::usage();
Which can use the message class, since now the package stuff is
initialized.

Then drop this and all code needed to make it work.
My point is that we can just move things around a bit, we don't need
elaborate classes to support something that only happens on a brief
spell upon startup.
