+Forgot to clear to the end of screen when restoring a screen buffer.
+That worked, for some reason, with Take Command but not with normal
+consoles. I don't remember why I didn't resize the screen like a Linux
+X terminal emulator but that might have made things work a little
+better. Right now, there is a scroll bar for apps like less or vi and
+that doesn't feel right.

+Reorganized _cygtls::signal_debugger to avoid sending anything to the
+debugger if we've seen an exception. I think it used to work that way
+and I changed it without noting why. It sure seems like, if we don't do
+this, gdb will see two signals and, it really does, when there has been
+a Windows-recognized exception.

+Wow. It's hard getting the screen handling stuff working correctly when
+there is a screen buffer larger than screen size and vice versa. These
+changes attempt to use SetConsoleWindowInfo whenever possible so that
+the contents of the screen buffer are never wiped out. They also fix
+some previously misbehaving "scroll the screen" commands.

Given the fact that the signal thread never exits there is no need
