Description:
The tests for the instance manager are skipped on Windows -
but only if "include/not_windows.inc" recognizes the current platform to be a Windows platform.

This seems not to work in "win2003-amd64", the "im_*" tests are attempted
and fail only after a 400 sec timeout, telling 
"Instance Manager PID file is missing".

Then, also the subsequent tests of "index_merge*" and "information_schema*" all fail, because their connect fails (bug#19908).

How to repeat:
Build + test on "win2003-amd64".

The im test uses include/im_check_os.inc and that file connects to the instance manager before running the query to determine if it's windows or not.

So this is catch 22. We start IM, so it can be asked if it supports the current platform. :-) And since IM doesn't start, it's hard to ask it.

We should probably modify the test script just to skip all *.imtest on windows until IM is supported.
