233 so the stdout is either fully-buffered or non-buffered. We can't
234 make stdout non-buffered, because of two concerns:
236 1. Non-buffering hurts performance.
237 2. Non-buffering may change GDB's behavior when it is interacting
238 with a front-end, such as Emacs.
240 We leave stdout as fully buffered, but flush it first when
241 something is written to stderr.
243 Note that the 'write_async_safe' method is not overridden, because
244 there's no way to flush a stream in an async-safe manner.
245 Fortunately, it doesn't really matter, because:
247 1. That method is only used for printing internal debug output
248 from signal handlers.
250 2. Windows hosts don't have a concept of async-safeness. Signal
251 handlers run in a separate thread, so they can call the regular
252 non-async-safe output routines freely.
