[Haskell-beginners] shortcut for printing to stderr

I use a formula like this very often:

  hPutStrLn stderr "error message"

Is there not some shortcut function in base that prints to stderr
without having to pass in the handle? Obviously it is not hard to define
one, but it would be neat to know if there was already one in base. (I
couldn't seem to find one in the System.IO listing.)
