Hi,

the following program always produces the same output when I run it from
rhide, but when I run it from cmd, produces different outputs

#include <time.h>
#include <iostream>

int main(char** argc, int argv)
{
 std::cout << time(NULL) << std::endl;
 return 0;
}

For example, from rhide, unless I exit rhide and restart, everytime
I press ctrl-F9, I get (under WinXP for a particular run),

1075591010

From the cmd.exe prompt, the number increments every second as
expected.

Is this normal, or is it a bug? I am using gcc 3.2.3, rhide 1.5.0.1.

Thanks,
Patrick
