  In some cases, the non JDK 1.3 command launcher works better on NT since it 
  effectively runs the command using cmd. Should we consider not making the 1.3 
  launcher the default for NT.

+ Added vmlauncher attribute to exec. If vmlauncher is set to false, the OS is 
+ used to launch the executable. On Windows this will mean that perl scripts can 
+ be executed without having to specify the perl executable.
