Sure -- if all you're building is a standalone C program. Perl modules 
aren't like that -- whatever perl.exe you use to compile your module has 
builtin defaults and settings for "how I make modules".  Unfortunately, 
this means that cygwin-perl builds modules for cygwin-perl.  And no 
other.  If you want to build ActiveState perl modules, you need to use 
ActiveState perl to do it -- and check the ActiveState website for 
instructions how to do that.

Modules are not interchangable between perl implementations.

I'd LOVE to be wrong about this, but I don't think so...
