 Hi,

 There are several functions in the util.c test that are not available
 on win98 and NT4. That can be dealt with easily.

 Almost all tests with a NULL parameter crash on win98/NT4. I know that
 a few weeks back we talked about ignoring win98 if it would mean
 skipping a lot of tests, but now NT4 is involved as well.

 I could introduce a variable of course that's set when we are on NT4
 or lower (because of the missing functions) and don't run the 'NULL'
 tests.

 Any ideas, comments?


I had this idea rejected before. Something about the test should not
test Windows version, only Windows behaviour,
except when an app relies on it. (In which case it IS some kind of
meta-behaviour one might say.)
