I know.

Then I am utterly mystified by your original comment and this entire subthread. But don't bother explaining further, because it doesn't matter. syphilis identified the trigger for the behaviour and by avoiding that, I avoid the problem.

I'd greatly prefer a way to simply disable the colorisation entirely, but that would seem to require too much.

I'd also greatly prefer that whomever decided that if they can't "detect" my compiler, that it is a good idea to install one, didn't repeat the mistakes of the past by going the same route as they did by downloading the ancient version of nmake.exe and trying to use that, (despite that a newer and more capable version was available on the system via the path), when it was long known that it couldn't handle the generated makefiles. But that persisted long after the problem with was pointed out, so I doubt this will be any different.
