Changing the inherited STDOUT

Hi,

My program runs as a child process of a process that its STDOUT was
redirected to a file. (open STDOUT, ">$logfile").
Obviously, the child process inherits the STDOUT redirection. My
question is: if I need to write something to the real output (for
example, the terminal in unix), how can I claim back the original
STDOUT?

Thanks, Yosi
