When the fork() function is called, $pid is assigned 0, which causes
the call to POSIX::_exit(42) to be run in test 9.t;

  if ($pid == 0) {
    # child
    require POSIX;
    POSIX::_exit(42);
  }

I don't know if this is by design.  I'm re-reading PERLWIN32 right now
to see if it says anything about how fork()ing is done on Windows.

Attached is the output of prove and perl t/9.t.  Let me know if you
need something else/different.

Thanks,

Brian
