For those who are actually running all of the tests, current defaults for
the FSharpQA suite are to use parallel execution + hosted compiler server.
This results is a new compiler server console popping up and dying away
every few seconds, which is rather disruptive if you are trying to do other
work.

It's a simple change to make those windows hidden, just update constant in
runall.pl
https://github.com/Microsoft/visualfsharp/blob/fsharp4/tests/fsharpqa/testenv/bin/runall.pl#L3869
to CREATE_NO_WINDOW.

Hosted compiler was initially very unreliable, so it was nice to be able
to see the output. But it seems sturdy enough now, I think I will change
the behavior to something less disruptive.

Thanks for this info. BTW I think it would make sense to make CREATE_NO_WINDOW the default.
