Follow-up Comment #2, patch #4570 (project gnustep):

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/debug/base/outputdebugstring.asp
for documentation.

If the application has no debugger, the system debugger displays the string.
If the application has no debugger and the system debugger is not active,
OutputDebugString does nothing.

If no one is debugging the program, then they will not notice anything.  It
is true that the event log is very much like unix's syslog, but the
OutputDebugString is totally different.

With the syslog parameter enabled, this functionality is identical to the
implemtation of NSLog in Apple's Openstep for Windows 4.0.
