Nick, any idea why isatty fails here? Incorporating Weiqi's changes is
no problem, but having to workaround isatty failing with JYTHON_OPTS="-
i" sucks.
Even isatty's pure java fallback should be returning true for the
console streams.
What's frustrating about these cygwin problems are none of us
developers who've tried it have had any problems with it, even without
Weqi's changes.
