Description:
The MTR as configured in the mysql-6.0-rpl tree does not perform well on Windows under Cygwin.

Additional messages are spewed to the console making the display difficult to read. Also, there are a number of messages that differ from running MTR under Linux.

The Linux example:

cbell@ubuntu64:~/source/bzr/mysql-6.0-bug-39598/mysql-test$ ./mysql-test-run.pl
 --do-test=backup_myisam --suite=main
Logging: ./mysql-test-run.pl  --do-test=backup_myisam --suite=main

------------------------------------------------------------
The servers were restarted 0 times
Spent 1.186 of 29 seconds executing testcases

All 2 tests were successful.

How to repeat:
Build a branch of mysql-6.0-rpl.
Run ./mysql-test-run.pl --do-test=backup_myisam --suite=main.

Suggested fix:
Change MTR to write messages to a log and/or change MTR to run under Cygwin with appropriate environment settings documented.
