Thanks very much for this report, and tracking the offending changeset  
down.

The cause is the way the text area hooks into $stdout et al as a fake  
OutputStream. That won't work anymore with the refactored IO system.

I think the easiest fix is to make it a WritableByteChannel, which  
I'll have a go at later.
