man vacation says:

       -d Send error/debug messages to stderr instead of syslog. Other-
              wise, fatal errors, such as calling vacation with incorrect
              arguments, or with non-existent logins, are logged in the system
              log file, using syslog(8). This should only be used on the com-
              mand line, not in your .forward file.

It's really easier to debug when errors are logged.
