I can't remember exactly, but I think I compiled gschem with -mwindows,
which means if I start it from a windows cmd.exe, it detaches from the
console and doesn't return any stdout.

Did you notice that? If so, I'm wondering how the piping works. Does
gschem.exe not detach from the cygwin console?

Or.. I'm being dumb, and I actually compiled without -mwindows for the
latest test binary. Does it pop up a back command prompt window when
it's run from the start menu?

(I'm not in a position to test the suite on a Windows box at the
moment).

Best wishes,
