Thanks a lot for working on that! The noise due to the old IPC::Run has been
very annoying...

Noah, do you know if upgrading on windows would fix any issues? Unfortunately
the recipe we used for all the other platforms probably won't quite work on
windows (although it's possible we could use the mingw install to build the
IPC::Run for the perl install used by the msvc build).
