redirect uses unbuffered FileOutputStream -> bad performance when accessing networked Windows Shares

Hmmm.

We've had preformance problems in the past caused by _excessive_ buffering --
flowing through multiple layers of buffers can add significant overhead -- and
in the main-line processing removing most of the buffering really was the right
answer.

But redirect, since we know it's going direct to the I/O system, might well be
an exception.


(But I'm slightly horrified by the implication that Windows shares aren't doing
their own buffering...!)
