The message is printed while intialising the Cygwin DLL during
mintty's startup. Since mintty is a GUI subsystem program, stdout
points to digital Nirvana at that point.
I don't think there's anything I can do about it short of turning
mintty into a CUI program that hides its console unless there's output
on it already, like rxvt does. That, however, has the unfortunate side
effect of the console popping up briefly, so I'm really not keen on
that.
Perhaps the DLL could allocate a console if one isn't available before
printing diagnostic messages? Or use MessageBox()?
