Unfortunately it does here. I originally had CYGWIN=tty. I removed the variable.
Restarted windows. Recompiled. And text appears on the console after doing
`setup --help` with the cout patch.
I can't explain it, and will leave it at that. If anyone does want to trace this
down, and can't reproduce it themselves send me a message and I'll try to help.
Dave.
