There are occasions where you want to use the perl.exe mapping. For
example, we noticed that if you make calls to the system() function in your
script, the function would fail (actually it appeared to work but never
executed the intended program). Unless this has been corrected in the
latest version of the PERL isapi dll, you might want to double check your
scripts :)
