Because we still haven't gotten Tom's hack to launch the inferior in an
XTerm into the sources. So we leave stdout & stdin for the inferior to use.
Using the console for this is not good, since it is a Tk text widget, and
doesn't understand all the coolo junk you can do to terminals...
Maybe somebody who is still working on Insight can just slide this in and
see if it breaks.
