It turned out to be a problem in MSYS2, where isatty is not working
correctly when an FD is redirected to /dev/null.  I've opened a ticket:
https://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/tickets/157/

The problem can be reproduced even with a C file when stdout is
redirected to /dev/null.  A minimal workaround would be to use
--color=no and bypass the check.
