Subject: bug#35046: [PATCH] factor: check the standard output instead of the standard input

From: Shugo Maeda <[email-masked]>

* src/factor.c (lbuf_putc): Use line buffered mode if the standard
output (not the standard input) is a terminal in the same way as the
stdio library.  User programs might use pty only for the standard out
like the example of Ruby's PTY module:
