I'm not in a position to double-check that these patches work on Windows,
but I reviewed them through the expedient of diff'ing the patched files
against HEAD.  The only problem I found was you'd left out the
documentation addition about needing IPC::Run in install-windows.sgml.
So I've pushed them with that fix.

Where do we now stand on invoking the TAP tests in the buildfarm?
