Ugh. This is a sad state of affairs... All console I/O for native
targets goes to the controlling xterminal where insight was launched. It
does NOT go to the console window. I had some code from Tom Tromey
(tromey@cygnus.com) that demonstrated how gdbtk/Insight could open a new
xterm for the child process, but I never got around to implementing it.
I kinda like the current behavior. (Whether that's because I really do
like it or because I am just used to it doing that is a mystery to me.
:-)
So, rest assured: what you are observing is "normal". (Now, if you don't
see your programs output in the xterm, that's another problem
altogether.)
