Because this are Stdio buffers constructed on startup we can abort, if
memory allocation fails:

In the case of buffered IO, the constructor of Cyg_StdioStream
constructs a Cyg_StdioStreamBuffer object io_buf. The constructor of
Cyg_StdioStreamBuffer calls Cyg_StdioStreamBuffer::set_buffer that may
fail for lack of memory. The returned error is silently ignored in the
constructor of Cyg_StdioStreamBuffer. In this case the constructor of
Cyg_StdioStream gives up, before the magic value is set.
So what are you suggesting? What is the fix? Could you provide a
patch?
Thanks
Andrew
