Win32 Compatibility, Round 2

[sanko]

Hi!

All changes made work so far. ...that's the good news. The bad news is Windows is still fighting against you.

I won't go into Perl on Windows' fork, exec, and signal emulation but suffice it to say it doesn't work correctly; Right now, your tests leave zombie redis-server processes behind and/or hang. In most of your tests, issuing a shutdown command to redis before calling $server->stop is enough but that wouldn't work for t/transactions.t where you lose the connection before exit. ...and even with that change, Windows bungles kill SIGTERM, $self->{pid}; and the tests are marked failures. kill 0, $self->{pid};, despite being incorrect, works except in t/transactions.t where it still just hangs.

And, as written, timeouts don't work on Windows so you could skip these as you do on Solaris.

Thank you for your help! I think this time I got it right, I'm sending shutdown instead of killing redis on Windows, and skipping timeout too.
