So it seems to me to be an ActivePerl 5.8.X runtime error.
I guess that could be so - perhaps the vst.dll does something that bothers the 5.8 perl.exe, but doesn't bother the 5.6 perl.exe.
So in short it will work IFF I install 5.6.1 first. Install Inline. Remove 5.6.1 and install 5.8.4. The \Perl\site folder is left so the original installof Inline is still available.
Seems odd to me. I've used Inline::C on Windows fairly extensively and haven't come across anything like that :-)
I would think that your actual Inline installation would be unaffected by whether it was built by 5.6.1 or 5.8 - so the stipulation that you had to build and install Inline using 5.6.1 is a little suss. (I could be wrong about that, of course.)
Anyway - at least you've found a working solution (albeit a little cumbersome). Thanks for the feedback.
