Tango I/O bug?

Sadly, this simple fix isn't the solution.  Here's what I got back (via e-mail)...

Well, it is sent to an actual console. I mean I just start housebot
by hand
and interact with it.

I tried that. I added the import for tango.io.Stdout to housebot.d
and added
"Stdout.flush = true;" at the beginning of main(), just after the
variable
declarations. But nothing changed.
