No, if anything it's a bug in Windows.  Look in the archives at the
beginning of 2009 where this was discussed.  You can at least hide the
window after it exists now, but the option of starting it out of sight
has been removed with Windows 7 and not returned best I know.

It does hide the console window at the earliest possible moment.
