Florian Bruhin added the comment:

I didn't test the patch (I don't have the toolchain set up to do so), but it 
looks like this is indeed an exception which makes more sense to the developer.

When I saw the exception as it is now, I only discovered it's related to stderr 
being None by finding people having a similiar issue with curses, and with the 
new exception it'd be clear to me what happened.

I personally would prefer failing silently though so the application still runs 
(if there's no stderr, there just is no fault log), but that's debatable of 
course.
