           Summary: webkitpy's run_webkit_tests should initialize the
                    printer earlier on
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: peter at chromium.org

Before creating the Printer, which creates the MeteredStream that handles the log messages run_webkit_tests.py's run() sets up derived options. _set_up_derived_options() calls various methods on the Port objects. As this is done without a printer, they aren't able to use normal loggers and have to resort to writing to stderr directly.

There are FIXMEs in at least the Mac and Chromium-Android Ports, and the Chromium-Android Port imports "sys" for this reason alone.
