Console ... I hear you.

I think this did work in 1.3.x and maybe 2.0.x as well running on Win95/98/ME
since they didn't have Windows services. I remember mashing ctrl+c back in
those days would leave the pid file behind, and a nice little error message
about not gracefully stopping on next start up.

I'm assuming that back in those days httpd would check if running on an NT
version or not, and use the -k signal for console or a service accordingly.

Mashing ctrl+c has been the way I've been doing for years, and at least with
2.2 and now 2.4, the pid file will get removed properly. So, since Win95/98/ME
are long dead, the pid file is properly removed when mashing ctrl+c, all
Windows versions these days are NT based, I see no big need for this 15 year
old behavior come June 20th.

Much of the old code that dealt with Win95/98/ME has been ripped out of the
source as well so I do not consider it a bug. I consider it a reality of
current times (only NT versions of Windows).
