* win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid): When a process exits with an

	exception, pass this notice on to the caller with a SIG* code
	rather than truncating the exit code and missing the meaning.
	This allows TclCleanupChildren() to report "CHILDKILLED".

	This has a different behavior than unix in that closing the
	read pipe to a process sends the SIGPIPE signal which is
	returned as a SIGPIPE exit status.  On windows, we send the
	process a CTRL_BREAK_EVENT and get back a CONTROL_C_EXIT which
	is documented to mean a SIGINT which seems wrong as a system,
	but is the correct exit status.
