I imagine deptest.perl is doing something with paths that isn't
entirely portable. I'm filing this under "I need access to a Windows
system to fix it".

That test uses system signals, which Windows doesn't support. The
signals sub-tests will be skipped from now on when ($^O eq 'MSWin32').
I forsee it working in the future.

Hrm. I don't know why. Chalk another up to "I need access to a
Windows system".

Test 8 causes errors and makes sure they return proper values.
Sometimes it causes outright die within eval, and it expects to
continue beyond that. It also loads POE::Kernel a few times, wiping
out the symbols in that package between each try. I imagine AS Perl
is not enjoying all that abuse.
I might be able to hunt down just what in 08_errors.t is causing the
page fault, but "I need access to a Windows system" again.

More testing needed.

Wrapped getpriority() and setpriority() in eval, and will only call
them if a priority delta is specified. This test should work in the
future.

I should check out the newest bochs or something and see if I can
install enough of an emulator to get Win32 running.
