This is a bug in Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98,
Microsoft Windows ME, and Microsoft Windows NT 4.  They display
the "MS-DOS" icon on Win32 console applications.

To get rid of the console window, you'll need to write your
application to the WinAPI instead of to ANSI/POSIX, and then pass
a linker switch (in mingw32, it's -mwindows) when you link.
