           Summary: weston-launch screws up console printouts
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: ppaalanen at gmail.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: weston
           Product: Wayland

The easiest way to see the problem is to do on a VT:
$ weston-launch -- --help

I would expect that to print Weston's help text, but it seems to print one line
of garbage in the middle of my bash prompt.

If I redirect stdout and stderr to a file, the file gets the correct printouts.

I assume weston-launch is changing the console modes such that printing gets
scrambled. I wonder if this is even fixable. It also prevents seeing weston
backtraces on the console if weston crashes.

Tested with the latest git revision.
