I've a strange behavior of scummvm 0.7.1.
I compiled it twice under WinXPsp2 with MSYS-1.0.10 +
MinGW-3.4.2. When i started the first version, it
opened two windows, a 'debug' window (with messages
like 'Looking for monkeyVGA' and 'Trying to start game
... ') and the GUI window (in this window the game runs).
Now i re-compiled the scummvm (a newer version of zlib
was released) to use more recent libraries. This new
version does not open the first window, it opens just
the GUI window! (to be clear, I'm sure zlib is not
affecting the behavior of scummvm). The pre-compiled
version i got from scummvm site shows two windows too.
I compiled it following the usual dance of
'./configure' and 'make', so what's happened? Is there
an option to tell configure script whenever to use this
feature or not?
Thank you.

There is no option in the configure script. The console window will be shown unless the '-mwindows' parameter is added at link time. The '-mwindows' parameter is usually added by sdl-config, alter its options if you don't want it.
