stdout (and hence cout in C++) is used by the old retail Half-Life dedicated server, but you should still be able to redirect stdout (or cout) to a file.

Steam may or may not use stdout for the server console. I would guess that all of the engine output stuff is now routed to Steam I/O code which would get sent to the Steam GUI instead of the applications standard I/O stream.
