Setting it to undef will prevent the tests to run, per vcregress.pl:
    die "Tap tests not enabled in configuration"
      unless $config->{tap_tests};
Also, setting it to undef will match the existing behavior on
platforms where ./configure is used because the switch
--enable-tap-tests needs to be used there. And I would believe that in
most cases Windows environments are not going to have IPC::Run
deployed.

I have also rebased the recovery test suite as the attached, using the
infrastructure that has been committed lately.
