Default build out-of-the-box on Windows 7 x64 with VC++ 2010 SP1 is
sadly not a pleasant experience for me. As reported previously, numerous
tests hang and have to be killed, yielding the test results below. As
noted before, however, all is well aside from the intermittent fork.t
test 24 failure if STDERR is redirected somewhere.

It's a great shame that I've not been able to fix this. Is anyone else
seeing this, or is it just me? I get the same thing on two different
machines, so it's at least not just one particular machine.
