Some GUI Application uses the "system" function to execute external programs. It calls several programs, including "make".

I started the application, compiled with Cygwin 1.5.10., gcc3.3.3, with Cygwin 1.5.19 and suddenly black console windows keep coming up. The title shows, that the windows belong to sh.exe. They stay black and when the process finishes, the window disappears. At the start of the main application, stdout and stderr handles are reopened to a log-file, so I understand why the windows stay black, because the logfile is filled ok.
I had this same problem with FTE. I modified the FTE source code to add CREATE_NO_WINDOW to the CreateProcess calls, and that took care of it.
