MSWin32 installations now failing (is_deeply_fail.t)

Following Corion's test failure (http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/257464), my 5.6.1 installation suffers the same fate. Attached is the patch to fix the offending test. The problem comes down to Windows file names being 't\is_deeply_fail.t', with the '\' being seen as an escape character in the regex and causing problems. Oddly testing in isolation with Test::Verbose's tv script, this doesn't seem to be a problem, only when running nmake test on the lot does it cause problems. Very curious!
