jsvc & Gradle - no console output, Gradle daemon crashes

I'm trying to test my Java app with IntelliJ IDEA on my local machine (it is intended to be used as a daemon, therefore the use of jsvc).

For testing purposes I want both stdout and stderr to be output to console. According to the jsvc help site (jsvc --help) setting -outfile '&2' and -errfile '&1' should redirect stdout and stderr to each other (as per my understanding).

In a normal shell (with these two options set) the daemon launches and outputs some stuff to the console, but when using a Gradle Exec task and the exact same command the Gradle daemon crashes and outputs to the files '&2' and '&1'.

The task configuration:

File jsvcFile = file("./jsvc")
File pidFile = file("./jsvc.pid")

String mainClass = "substupdater.SubstUpdater"

task run (dependsOn: [jar, jsvc], type: Exec) {

    doFirst {

        // Get the absolute path of all libraries
        String classPath = project.configurations.compile.join(':')

        executable(jsvcFile)

        args("-server", "-cp", classPath + ':' + jar.archivePath, "-nodetach",
             "-cwd", project.rootDir, "-outfile", "'&2'", "-errfile", "'&1'",
             "-pidfile", pidFile, "-procname", project.name, mainClass, "debug")

    }
}

Gradle daemon crash (gradle -d run):

I just had to specify the full path to the file descriptor symlinks (namely /proc/self/fd/1 for stdout and /proc/self/fd/2 for stderr) and now output is being done to console.

The Gradle daemon still crashes but I think this is due to Gradle not being able to handle that the jsvc daemon process kills itself(?).
