It turns out that System.console() returns null under Cygwin.
See https://code.google.com/archive/p/mintty/issues/56
and mintty/mintty#244

TODO: update the manual to reflect this.

Cygwin uses pseudo terminal (pty) devices, implemented using Windows pipes. MinTTY is based on Cygwin pty and has the same issue.
