This sounds a lot like the Deluxe Music construction set bug. Basically
the programmer leaves a printf() call in their code and when the program
is started from workbench there is no 'Stdin' or 'Stdout' and so the 
program bombs. I sure hope we can get this changed in 1.3. I will submit
it as a request for enhancement on BIX.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
