In order to check how DBD does the new DBI tricks, so I might find time to
update DBD::Unify to do alike, I tried to install it under Cygwin on my W2k
box, but I hit a limit that I did not see before:
/usr/bin/perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'b
lib/arch')" t/*.t

I /think/ that that used to work. Is the maximum DSN length documented
somewhere? I think above example ain't that extreme.
