Well, this behavior is fallout of fixing the PR.
And I claim it is a bug -- the mk/bulk/printdepends should not
write any errors unless the errors are real problems that
should be fixed. I have no problem with "show-depends-dirs"
writing errors in this case, but then "printdepends" need to
suppress the errors, or use some other mechanism.
