That's not entirely accurate.  The DOS port of GDB has special code to
separate debuggee's output from its own (and the same for input).  So
output of GDB and of the debuggee is no more mixed on screen on DOS
than it is on Unix.

You can redirect the debugge's output on DOS as well, although not
with these commands.
