Console issues in recent git

does the attached patch help with some of the concerns ?
I/ it should allow typing in the console (for all GUI programs) and 
still see output get buffer when the programs exits
II/ reduce the number of cases where the console is in raw mode after 
wine exits
Not all the cases are supposed to be fixed.
For example, this is one example of what still doesn't work

but in this case, the first program is killed at the same time as 
winedbg exits, which shouldn't the case)
what shall remain not fixed is the case where:
- pgm A is started from shell command line
- pgm A spawns child B
- B is a CUI and tries to interact with the console by reading the input
- A dies
I still sometimes see it when exiting winedbg after it has been launched 
upon a fault in a running program... but, something goes wrong here as 
quitting winedbg (B) shouldn't kill the program beeing debugged (A)

what's not yet fixed :
- regression in EOF management

A+
