If instead of "foo | less" you run "cmd.exe /c foo | less" from the Bash 
command prompt, does it solve the problem?  I thought you said it did, 
so I suggested to run PE executables via the Windows shell.

The idea is that if cmd.exe starts with its stdout redirected, any Win32 
console application run from it will inherit the redirection.
