Subject: [PATCH 39/N] Cygwin: pty: Prevent deadlock on echo output.
- If the slave process writes a lot of text output, doecho() can
cause deadlock. This is because output_mutex is held in slave::
write() and if WriteFile() is blocked due to pipe full, doecho()
tries to acquire output_mutex and gets into deadlock. With this
patch, the deadlock is prevented on the sacrifice of atomicity
of doecho().
