Hello Gilles,

If as Nikolas suspects, swing uses java.util.logging which it probably
does, then go with his suggestion of redirecting j.u.l. to SLF4J.

If for some reason swing actually writes directly to the console, then
you would want to capture system.out and direct it to SLF4J. Robert
Elliot started working on this very tricky topic and made some real
progress, see [1]; but for some unfortunate reason the issue got stalled.
