There shouldn't be a space....

My test:
mohag at mohagpc:~$ (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2)
stdout
stderr
mohag at mohagpc:~$ (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) > /dev/null
stderr
mohag at mohagpc:~$ (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) 2> /dev/null
stdout
mohag at mohagpc:~$ (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) &> /dev/null
mohag at mohagpc:~$

See http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html

Not sure if it works in plain Bourne....

dash doesn't work as expected:
mohag at mohagpc:~$ dash
$ (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) &> /dev/null
$ stdout
stderr

[1] + Done                       (echo stdout; echo stderr 1>&2)
$
zsh works:
mohag at mohagpc:~$ zsh
mohagpc% (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) &> /dev/null
mohagpc% (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) > /dev/null
stderr
mohagpc% (echo stdout; echo stderr >&2) 2> /dev/null
stdout
