[mp1] INSTALL_DLL on win32
At present, on mod_perl 1 on Win32 one must give
'perl Makefile.PL' an INSTALL_DLL argument to specify
where to install mod_perl.so, with no default assumed.
This diff (together with a note in INSTALL.win32):

The diff also removes printing out a message about

may in fact confuse newer users who may not be aware
of the use of the older name.

Since I am not running mod_perl on win32 quite yet, I guess there
is nothing much I can say about it '=)
looking at the patch carefully did not scare me at all.
Looks good to me
