Using xterm as the console I was able to duplicate the problem.

Redirecting does not solve the issue. I change it to use 'true' which is POSIX
compliant, so it should be available on other platforms as well. I doubt that
the backup feature works on Windows the way it is implemented right now
anyway. MacOSX should be no problem as it is more *NIX style. I bet Marco will
chime in if he sees a problem.
