   Changes with Apache 1.3.15
   
  +  *) While Windows 95 and 98 may still run Apache as a 'service' in a 
  +     hidden window, the Apache Win9x service now dies when the user 
  +     logs off.  No immediate or obvious solution available, but this
  +     was a side effect of restoring 16-bit CGI processes, of which the
  +     command.com is one.  This benefits far outweighs this unfortunate
  +     side effect.  [William Rowe]
  +
  +  *) Restore child process consoles to correct 16-bit CGI execution
  +     on Windows.  Relies on Win9xConHook.dll for Win9x.  This patch
  +     also assures the Apache window remains titled 'Apache', rather
  +     than flickering to the cgi app titles.  [William Rowe]
  +
  +  *) Added Win9xConHook.dll, which uses hidden console spy windows to 
  +     handle the shutdown, logoff and Close button events, and dispatch
  +     them to Apache just as SetConsoleCtrlHandler does on Win NT/2K.
  +     The close button on Win9x now works, and the Win9x service support
  +     code moved into this module.  [William Rowe]
  +
  +  *) Fix messages from the -k start/stop/restart command options on
  +     Windows.  [William Rowe]
  +
  +  *) Allow Win32 users to build mod_isapi, regardless of the age of
  +     their Win32 SDK headers.  Warning provided if features must be
  +     disabled due to old headers.  [William Rowe]
  +
  +  *) The ScriptInterpreterSource Registry source will now handle any
  +     post-scriptname arguments (e.g. cmd script -q), substitute any
  +     environment variables (e.g. "%windir%\sysapp.exe") and use the
  +     short or long path name as appropriate (e.g. "doit %1" uses the
  +     short form, no spaces, while "doit "%1"" uses the long form of
  +     the script name, in quotes.)  Also, passes all script names in
  +     backslash delimited format (instead of slashes).  [William Rowe]
  +
     *) Accomodate an out-of-space condition in the piped logs and the
        rotatelogs.c code, and no longer churn log processes for this
        condition.  [Victor J. Orlikowski]

     *) Corrected file path arguments from server conf directives to
        their canonical form (excluding OS2 - which uses alternate 
        logic.)  Resolves a long list of PRs reporting that Win32 paths
  -     of the syntax x:\foo were mis-concatinated to the server root.

        file path arguments were not normalized in canonical form.

  -      There is also an unverified report that Apache in a Win98 (95?)

  -      confirmed report, and Apache as a hidden service does not share
  -      this reported problem.  Perhaps this is a child process issue,
