Subject: alt_fork should work on MSWin32
Since POE::Wheel::Run::Win32 was merged into POE::Wheel::Run I believe it's safe to remove this restriction for alt_fork. However, I don't have a usecase as I don't use Windows - maybe someday I'll find something to run on MSWin32 and get back to this ticket :) If somebody could investigate this and see if your program doesn't break with the latest POE/POE::Wheel::Run it would be awesome :) The patch is simply to remove the alt_fork carp in sub spawn. -- ~Apocalypse
I have neither the time nor the capacity to test this. I deactivated most of the MSWin32 checks (there were some in the tests. One must remain) Let's see how much smoke 0.1300 (which I just uploaded) gives out.
