Modified Files:
      Tag: Zope-2_7-branch
	mkzopeinstance.py

Major service enhancements.  Service cleanly shuts down child, and if child
fails the tail of the process output (which generally contains a traceback)
is
written to the event log.

Minor tweaks to the Windows build 'clean' process and documentation tweaks.
