This commit modifies marc_export to only print "Waiting for input"
when run in an interactive manner. This suppresses the output when
run from a pipe.
To test this change:
Before the commit is applied both of the following command lines will
output "Waiting for input" to standard error:
$ marc_export --format XML
$ echo <bibid> | marc_export --format XML
Where you replace <bibid> with a bibliographic record entry id from
your database.
After the commit is applied, only the first command line will output
the "Waiting for input" message.

# Look for passed in ids:
my @ids = ();
if ($config->need_ids()) {
- print STDERR "Waiting for input\n";
+ print STDERR "Waiting for input\n" if (-t);
while (my $i = <>) {
push @ids, $i if ($i =~ /^\s*[0-9]+\s*$/);
