298 <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/86cebhfs%28v=vs.71%29.aspx>
299 so the stdout is either fully-buffered or non-buffered. We can't
300 make stdout non-buffered, because of two concerns:
302 1. Non-buffering hurts performance.
303 2. Non-buffering may change GDB's behavior when it is interacting
304 with a front-end, such as Emacs.
306 We leave stdout as fully buffered, but flush it first when
307 something is written to stderr.
309 Note that the 'write_async_safe' method is not overridden, because
310 there's no way to flush a stream in an async-safe manner.
311 Fortunately, it doesn't really matter, because:
313 1. That method is only used for printing internal debug output
314 from signal handlers.
316 2. Windows hosts don't have a concept of async-safeness. Signal
317 handlers run in a separate thread, so they can call the regular
318 non-async-safe output routines freely.
