How current is your binary, and what are you running it in?  And what's
the host platform configured as?

If it's a MinGW32-hosted GDB, and you're running it in a DOS console,
and the binary is more than a few months old, than this is an expected
and fixed bug; try a current CVS.  If this is a DJGPP binary running
in a Windows console, then I'm not really sure what to do.  I haven't
tried that.  You'd have to do something similar to what I did for
mingw32.

The problem came in gdb_has_a_terminal.  You have to have serial_fdopen
work on the console, and you have to be able to get the terminal state
from the result.

This sounds good to me.
