I'm not sure if the problem is (or entirely) with Gulam.

I compiled a trivial program that would read from stdin and print to both
stdout and stderr. First I compiled it under Sozobon using DLibs.
It worked fine. I then used redirection for both input and output. Only the
message sent to stderr appeared. Again no problem. BUT when I compiled it
with MWCthere was no screen output and the stderr was appended to the input
file!! On both occasions I was using Gulam. If a program compiled with MWC
expects only to be run from 'msh' then I think that is a lose.

I personally use Gulam all the time and would welcome an upgrade too.
