Hmm,

I think its not working cause it uses rc = spawnvp(P_WAIT, my_perl, (char* const*)argv);

which ends up being

 DllExport int
win32_spawnvp(int mode, const char *cmdname, const char *const *argv)
[download]

from perl\win32\win32.c

which ends up using CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP;

So what needs done is copy/modify win32_spawnvp() or use CreateProcess directly ... to add JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE

Too much blind experimenting for me at the moment

Simply copy/pasting do_spawnvp_handle doesnt compile :/
