Running Configure.pl under Windows (XP Home), Strawberry Perl, produces
the following error message:

auto::gmp -           Does your platform support GMP...Can't spawn
".\test_616.exe": Bad file descriptor at lib/Parrot/Configure/Utils.pm
line 86.
....................no.

Windows also tries to "Phone Home", but I suspect it's the underlying GMP
failure that causes that.
