I actively do Parrot and Rakudo development on Win32, but with 
ActiveState Perl. I do see *some* failures, mostly related to NaN/Inf 
handling things. I hadn't noticed a big increase in failures, though - 
would at least be interesting to compare what you're seeing against what 
I and other Win32 devs are.

One all-encompassing one at first, then we can always create some more 
if we want to track specific issues (or we may already have some).

Thanks!
