WHOH!  Go ahead, f* us win32 users ;-)

Actually, Thom's point actually makes win32 much *easier* to set up to
support APXs on win32... if we can only get rid of the libtool dependency ;-)
In any case, I'm thinking if you want to create a parallel .sh script and we
can all agree to keep the .sh and .pl flavors of apxs in working order, this
could be a good thing for everyone :-)
