Subject: Flush stdout after each message
Date: Wed, 23 Jun 2010 05:43:58 -0000

To: flashrom@flashrom.org

Currently messages like "Writing flash chip..." that don't end with a
newline are buffered until the operation is complete, unless the
particular write function generates status output in the meantime.

Flushing stdout after each message ensures that the message appears
immediately.
