I'll speculate that this is the same problem that I've seen using Emacs. 
  If everything is CygWin, then everything works just dandy.  But, 
something happens when a cygwin program runs a non-cygwin program (or 
vice-versa):  The launched app will disregard it's parent's "console" 
and create it's own.

I've been trying to reproduce it with some relatively simple -mno-cygwin 
app, but so far, I've been unable to make any progress.
