There are three problems here.
First, your report indicates you could not locate t/01_ini.t ...
[ERROR] [Sat Sep 17 07:34:10 2005] MAKE TEST failed: No such file or
directory t/01_ini..........................ok
even though it was reported earlier in the report to be extracted
successfully:
[MSG] [Sat Sep 17 07:33:05 2005] Extracted
'ExtUtils-ModuleMaker-0.39/t/01_ini.t'
Second, there are the failures of t/13 through t/16. These may be
cygwin-specific test failures. Those same tests have passed when you
have run the test suite on other OSes (cf reports 241817 et al). Would
you be able to (a) run the output of prove on one of these files, e.g.,
prove -vb t/13_alt_ block_new_method.t
and send it to me; and (b) tell me what is the value of $^O on Cygwin
(i.e., is it "MSWin32" or something else?)?
Third, I wish to call your attention to the fact that your CPANPLUS
installation, in preparing for execution of tests, is extracting not
simply ExtUtils-ModuleMaker-0.39 but also ExtUtils-ModuleMaker-TT-0.79,
which is a separate CPAN distribution (albeit one which inherits some
methods from EU::MM) written and maintained by David Golden. Here is
the section of your test report which illustrates this:

This problem also occurred with corion's test:
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/244167. On his Win32
system, tests t/13 thru t/16 also failed. While I cannot say
definitively that the test failures are due to this erroneous
extraction of another distribution, it does bear investigation. Thank
you very much.
