Messages written to System.out are automatically redirected to the
root logger by CraftBukkit. However, before the messages reach the
logger, they are encoded and later decoded again using the standard
system encoding.
On some systems (e.g. FreeBSD), the standard system encoding is
US-ASCII by default, which doesn't support the section sign (§) that
is used for the color codes. Consequently, they will never reach
the formatter that translates them into ANSI escape codes.
There is no reason to write these messages to System.out - it just
adds additional overhead and the encoding problems. We can just log
the messages directly with the root logger.
