I tried altering Apache-Test/t/SMOKE to use IPC::Run, but
there seemed to be problems, which I wasn't sure were
related to how I implemented things, or perhaps issues of
the failure of some of the IPC::Run tests (this is no
criticism of IPC::Run - a lot of work and thought has been
put into getting it to function as well as it does on
Win32).  However, the docs for IPC::Run mention that it
doesn't work on Win9? (given the differences between Win9?
and WinNT/2K/XP, this may be a fundamental problem?). So I
thought (using Win32::Process) of trying to get t/SMOKE to
work on all flavours of Win32. This may not be worth doing
in the end, but I thought initially it's worth exploring.
