---------------------------

Only a subset of the standard Perl 5 Kit has been implemented, as there is 
usually no direct equivalent of the functionality in Win32.

Any functions marked with '**' will NOT warn that they are not implemented.
Providing this 'warn facility' would require changes to the Perl 5 UNIX Distribution.

Following are the unsupported functions:
