While strictly true, in practice nearly every implementation
provides the extension procedure "current-error-port", analogous
to the standard procedure "current-output-port". So the following
is very likely (though not guaranteed) to be portable:
(display "This is an error message" (current-error-port))
(newline (current-error-port))
