Sure, but "how do write to stdout" wasn't what I asked ...

     gpt backup [-o outfile]
             The backup command dumps the MBR or (PMBR) and GPT partition
             tables to standard output or to a file specified by the outfile
             argument in a format to be used by the restore command.  The
             format is a plist.  It should not be modified.

What I meant was, if the "-o outfile" is not there, and the dump is
"tables to standard output" and not "or to a file specified" ...

How does that work now?

Of, if you like, take your new version, and just try "gpt backup XXXn"
(or whatever device is relevant) and observe.
