"$_[KERNEL]->delay("ev_count", .5);" so that the counter is updated

Verified here. I'm looking into it.
I figure that I'm either missing something very basic (quite
possible) or
there's something "not quite right" with Poe under Win32. The later
seems
to be a possibility as the ActiveState build status page for Poe
0.3301
for Win32 shows that the build failed which is why I had to get the
PPM
from Randy Kobes PPM repository.

ActiveState have traditionally harshed on POE for a number of
reasons, including its use of ExtUtil::MakeMaker. Version 0.34 won't
be using that module anymore, so we'll see what other problems crop up.
