I believe that the log_message method of BaseHTTPServer should log to
sys.stdout not sys.stderr, whereas log_error should log to sys.stderr
instead of just delegating to log_message.

I found this inconsistency when using SimpleXMLRPCServer which logs both
successful (200) and non-successful (non-200) requests to stderr when
logRequests is set to True.

The OP's comments strike me as sensible, do others agree or disagree?

I think this is the right thing to do. To help this along I've included a patch. The codereview is also available: http://codereview.appspot.com/1697062.
