Yeah, this is real rats nest for Win32, the easiest way out is to just
use notepad by default for the command line client, or a GUI that has a
text editing control for the commit message. There's nothing wrong with
using the EDITOR environment variable on Win32, it's just very unlikely
that it's actually set to something.

Some folks I know that use Perforce on Win32 went and wrote a custom
Perforce forms UI for editing the necessary Perforce forms.
