 > Hrm.  First thing to do here is to verify that Windows will even let you
 make a pipe (made with CreatePipe) nonblocking.  If not, let's step back
 and think of a more general solution here.

 Good point. What I will do in that case is to shelve this issue in bug
 #2045 and start on the Windows port in #1983. Once I have done some
 research on how to handle I/O redirection on Windows, I will have a better
 idea on how to solve this problem in a cross-platform manner.
