That's fine, it can happen whenever you're ready. I'm holding off on almost anything perl-related until then. | most modules build out of the box. Most??

The generated ones as they used to be | in older days? AFAIK our perl packages used to use the default, which is archname: cygwin-thread-multi-64int. It's a bit long, and makes for file listings more than 80 chars wide. Some ideas from what other distros *would* do, based on their other platforms: * Fedora, Gentoo: i686-cygwin-thread-multi * Debian, Ubuntu: nothing (archlib == privlib) The Debian method makes me wonder if there's any benefit at all to the lib/arch differential, being that Cygwin only supports one arch (i686). ~ Unless one day there will be separate x86_64 build? Doubtful, given that GCC still doesn't support amd64 PE/COFF. OTOH, if there is still a point to the archlib, Cygwin's perl has been threaded for quite a while. Maybe i686-cygwin will suffice?
