Or you could tell your CGI programs not to generate data on stderr.

In your example for instance.

  #!/bin/sh

  # Redirect stderr, not required in production
  exec 2>/dev/null

  echo "Content-Type: text/plain"
  echo "Expires: 0"
  echo

  echo "Hello World!"
  echo "You should not see this text in your Browser" >&2
