The attached patch skips the new getppid() test (perl/api.t) on Win32 since getppid() is unimplemented on this platform!

Weird:


% perldoc -f getppid
=item getppid

Returns the process id of the parent process.

Is it a bug in perl? why a non-portable function lives in perlfunc.pod?

Doesn't POSIX.pm provide a similar implementation?
