It is known problem, db driver is exe and when it is started by spawnl()
it opens Windows console for a while. I am not Win expert and I dont know
how to avoid this. I have asked already in QGIS and GRASS devel lists.

Some i.* modules which depend on GRASS monitor must be
impemented in QGIS in future. No solution for now.

Not crucial.
