This functionality definitely does not exist in commons logging.

However commons-logging uses "adapters" to map to various logging libraries, and
has the ability for an application to override the adapter used via a number of
mechanisms (system property, commons-logging.properties file, service file)
which are documented. 

I think you could write a custom adapter which sets up this stdout/stderr
override stuff when loaded, and configure commons-logging to use it.

I wouldn't be particularly interested in seeing this feature in core
commons-logging though; commons-logging is mainly for use by libraries, and
libraries shouldn't be writing to stdout or stderr. Applications which need to
trap this should know what underlying logging lib is being used, and can
therefore set this stuff up themselves.
