--- Comment #3 from Sidney Markowitz <si...@sidney.com> ---
I'm renaming the title of this issue, because over half of all tests don't run
under Windows due to various things that are written assuming a Unix/Linux
environment. Clearly nobody has been building and running tests under Windows
for some years. Nothing I've hit so far seems hard to fix, for example
re_base_extraction.t deletes files by calling
untaint_system("rm -f $siterules/*.pre");
which I'm sure perl is capable of doing itself.

Or we can decide that SpamAssassin no longer runs on Windows.

I'll go through things an item at a time and see if we get far enough by the
time we are otherwise ready to release 4.0.0.
