This is likely caused by the interactive input library we inject into  
processes spawned from TM with ⌘R and friends.

This library makes it possible for TextMate to bring up a requester  
when the process reads from stdin, but there are some compatibility  
problems with some apps on Snow Leopard.

You can set the environment variable TM_INTERACTIVE_INPUT_DISABLED in  
TextMate’s preferences (or delete the dylib in the Support folder  
that GetBundles checks out, but that’s then what you need to repeat  
after each update).
