cherokeeserv-0.1: A Windows service wrapper for Cherokee 0.60b700

Hello,

I hacked up a Windows service wrapper for Cherokee 0.60b700
using MinGW.
I used the OpenVPN code to start, and it only took a few
hours.

Here's the syntax:

cherokeeserv -install          to install the service
cherokeeserv -start            to start the service
cherokeeserv -stop             to start the service
cherokeeserv -remove           to remove the service
cherokeeserv -debug <params>   to run as a console app
for debugging

It successfully installs, starts and removes.  The -stop
option will
stop the service, but it doesn't stop the web server. To do
that, we
need to add:

#ifdef _WIN32
  if (WaitForSingleObject('cherokee_exit_1', 0) !=
WAIT_OBJECT_0) {
    // start shuting down and exiting
  }
#endif

to the web server code. As I am brand new with this code
base, can
someone point out where this should go, or if it's even
doable?

The source, and binary, is available here:

Er, that should obviously read:

    if (WaitForSingleObject('cherokee_exit_1', 0) ==
WAIT_OBJECT_0) {

That is very cool.  I don't think I will get too much of a
chance to 
look at this.  However I skimmed over the code and it looks
good for 
the most part... some styling I see now and a few comments
that still 
refer the code to OpenVPN ;)

I would vote to clean it up some and get it into the Windows
builds of 
Cherokee.
