to be precise, the console is created when winedbg launches the child 
process so that winedbg and the debuggee have too seperate consoles for 
their output.
If setting up wineconsole is an issue, you can:
1/ either remove the CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE flag in winedbg/winedbg.c
2/ fire your executable from the command line, and attaching to it later 
on. This wouldn't work easily with ddd (still doable, but with pain)

you cannot set a bp because since the creation of the console fails, the 
creation of the debuggee from winedbg fails too.
