It is very easy to have Blender start without the dosbox. Instead of 
linking to the console subsystem, one should link to the window 
subsystem. Until now the reasoning behind having the dosbox was that the 
user would need it when Blender tells there has been some error, which 
was logged to the console (dosbox). I'm more than happy to make the 
change to the SCons-part.
