I tried "perl t/SMOKE -verbose=1" and it makes no difference.

it's a problem inside t/SMOKE which invokes t/TEST internally.


It kicks off an Apach.exe which eats a bit of CPU for a short while and
then everything goes quiet.  Apache.exe stays sitting there, but doesn't
seem to do anything else.  I left it for nearly 2 hours and nothing
happened.


The problem here I believe is the use of pipes to launch the
tests. I'm working on, for Win32, the use of Win32::Process
instead - it's almost working, in that I can get the server
to start up and run, but there's a couple of things to iron
out, which hopefully won't take long.

No, no, no, is it possible to keep the win32-specific code away, it makes the code totally unreadable and unmaintainable :( Randy, how about using IPC::Run, which seems to work fine everywhere. I don't mind t/SMOKE to depend on optional modules, which we didn't want for t/TEST.


p.s. sorry for being grumpy about win32, it's certainly not your fault.
