I believe Mattias fixed this, now.

It depends if you want a console created with your app. There is a
subsystem type somewhere in the PE header that tells windows if the
application is a gui, console or driver. Hence this is a linker option.

Just as a sidenote: while GUI and console are available in the Win* targets, the "driver" option is only available in the NativeNT target (though the driver kind is currently untested since my last additions and also highly experimental)
