Thanks, I have found the start of the thread [1] using this link.  Still I
cannot imagine:

why during another tests we are able to redirect output, and namely during
the msvcrt* tests we are failing to do so.  No, no.  I mean, why in the
two latter tests we cannot use the way to print the output which is used
by the rest of the tests?

MSVCRT.DLL.SO fprintf() doesn't get redirected?  OK, lets switch to glibc 
(or anything who works properly).  Isn't it trivial to do?  

Maybe here goes the principle of not hiding the bug?  If yes, then please
tell me that bad way.  I will just be using it alone.

Heh, I am not sure I would be able to help by anything, but please post
your todo, Ferenc.  It is always interesting to see such stuff alive. :-)
