I would be somewhat surprised if this code would have any effect in
the trunk. The code in question looked like this:
if (!wincap.pty_needs_alloc_console () && newargv.iscui && myself->ctty == -1)
{
si.dwFlags |= STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;
si.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE;
}
Given that pty_needs_alloc_console() is false only on 9x, and is always
true on NT, the above code was only executed on 9x. Since 1.7 dropped
9x support, the code could go away. Shoot if I missed something.
