Before Bill loses the will to hack the piped logging code... is this all 
correct:

1) r452431 introduced a regression on Win32
2) PR 40651 (fixed by r452431) was Unix-specific?  Or at least PR 40651
is not as harmful as the aforementioned regression.
3) we can restore the pre-2.2.4 behaviour on Win32 by doing something 
simple like the below, without having to mess with the APR procattr code 
or continue adding complexity to the log.c code?
