I don't quite get the list of test failures.  Are you getting test failures
from just compiling the ActivePerl sources with `nmake && nmake test`?
That would be wrong.  Running without test failures is a prerequisite
for the releases.

I'll take a look at your patches once I get a little more time. I may not
get around to it until the weekend though.

I definitely think we want to get these changes into Perl 5.10.

Unfortunately we just missed ActivePerl 822, which was already approved
by QA this afternoon (there is no 821, except on HP-UX).
