I am assuming that you're trying to run on windows, and your problem
doesn't surprise me in the least. Quite frankly, I don't think we ever
got windows working as well as unix hosts.
While I would guess this works for native cygwin apps, I'll bet insight
never gets stdin reopened for some "terminal", and I don't believe that
there is any special magic in gdb/insight to re-route stdin calls to the
console window (although on a remote that shouldn't be too hard).
I suspect some hacking is in your future...
