What makes you think you need to do anything special?
The following starts a thread logging to STDERR (which is redirected to 'oldLog') once per second. The main thread then sleeps, logs once, reopens STDERR to 'aNewLog'; logs once more then sleeps 3 before ending. You'll see that there is output from both threads in 'oldLog', and also from both in 'aNewLog':
C> perl -Mthreads -E"
async{ warn threads->tid while sleep 1};
sleep 1;
warn threads->tid;
open STDERR, '>', 'aNewLog';
warn threads->tid;
sleep 3
" 2>oldLog
C> type oldLog
1 at -e line 1.
0 at -e line 1.
C> type aNewLog
0 at -e line 1.
1 at -e line 1.
1 at -e line 1.
1 at -e line 1.
Perl exited with active threads:
1 running and unjoined
0 finished and unjoined
0 running and detached

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
