Good catch.  The 0.28 in AP820 is actually just 0.27 plus the Win32::IsAdmin
change, so it is earlier than 0.27_01.  I've uploaded the next dev release
as 0.28_01 to CPAN and the final will be 0.29.

I think this will be due to the fact that AP820 already contains the forwarding
logic that moves all Win32::* functions into the Win32 module.  Therefore
the Win32.dll will be in use when Perl itself tries to overwrite it.  I think
this issue is fixed in at least bleadperl (by renaming the target file and
deleting the old one during the next reboot).  I believe this code will be
in 5.8.9 too.
