commit 804ed1bffb3ad13904a8e8838d63c7adc6e542e7
Author: Enrico Forestieri <for...@lyx.org>
Date:   Thu Sep 27 21:32:24 2018 +0200

    Fix bug #11210
    
    On Windows, start viewers in detached processes in order to avoid
    a crash of the QProcess destructor when their thread terminates.
    The opening of a console window is avoided by redirecting to the
    null device all standard I/O channels.
