No.  This is correct.  See below:

    rb_define_hooked_variable("$stdout", &rb_stdout, 0, stdout_setter);
    rb_define_hooked_variable("$stderr", &rb_stderr, 0, stdout_setter);
    rb_define_hooked_variable("$deferr", &rb_stderr, 0, deferr_setter);

Sorry if you feel the wording is a bit confusing.
