This time with a subject; apologies if the first one gets through.

We use windows native jam which spawns any number of cmd, cygwin, or studio=
 processes.
If we spawn it from a Cygwin terminal that doesn't have CYGWIN=3Dtty set, w=
e get:

The handle is invalid.

Every time output goes to the screen.
If we use CYGWIN=3Dtty, we get normal output.

The only way I've figured out how to fix this is with CYGWIN=3Dtty.  If the=
re is a better way,
please enlighten me.
