beside some bugs when using rules, --stdout is working, just try it yourself with a small sample dict (i just tested it)
the problem with the (original) rockyou.txt is, there is so much garbage inside this file like every control char you can imagine which can or will result in some strange behavior when running through a pipe, i also believe the original file starts with a BOM-marker which is also ... well ...
im quite sure, the windows CLI "waits" until hashcat prints all candidates before showing anything, due to the size of rockyou this can take some time or even result in crashing the cli
back then i used some basic linux tools like strings for cleaning up rockyou
