Alas, no, there is no strace within this installation, but see below!

I have a combination of MingW and MSYS running on this computer.
(I can not see any particular version number, except for 1.0)

It is version 2.4.7 for Windows. I got it directly from the
CMake site.

The good news is that I now know what is wrong with the example programs:
They were waiting for me to enter the device number. So, indeed, they
were waiting for some resource ;).

The bad news is that the output that ordinarily appears _before_ you
hit Enter (so that you know what the program is doing) appears only
after you hit the Enter key. This is true for C, C++ and F77 (the
bindings I was able to test rightaway).

There seems to be some odd buffering issue. I will experiment
with a small test program to see if I can reproduce it in a smaller
setting.

Regards,

Arjen
