Well, I've seen that you've skipped some of those offending tests under
Windows, but it seems that there are still some leftovers.
At the time of this writing (HTTP::Proxy v. 0.17) the still not-skipped
tests which hang under Windows are the following:
22http.t
23connect.t
90diveintomark.t
while all the others work OK or are properly skipped (in general, any
test using fork hangs).
Other than this, this module is a real gem: thanks for it!
Ciao,
Emanuele.
