For the Windows console process and display correctly the color, special care should be taken from the normal ANSi escape code and redirected to some Win32API functions. Doing that, autotest is no longer capable of capturing the STDOUT/STDERR of the child process and thus, not displaying the result. I'm aware that win32console author is working on workaround this limitation, but no other news.
