test run_ack( '--match', 'Sue' ); fails on Windows, chokes on "stdout.log".

[ghost]

On Windows (XP SP2, Strawberry 5.16.2, should not matter), t/ack-match.t failed for me with Out of memory error. This is because ack searches the stdout.log file as it is written into the build dir, during the 5th test:
run_ack( '--match', 'Sue' );

This patch is a (silly) workaround, a better approach for a fix might be to tell the test instance of ack to ignore all/some .logfiles.

This is a bigger issue than just this test. I've run into this problem doing regular old searches with ack, where something like

ack blahblah > foo

will have ack searching the foo file for blahblah and looping infinitely over it.

Or maybe stdout.log should not get written into the current directory?
