Yea - I discovered it's quite impossible to get msvcrt-linked activestate
to cooperate with openssl compiled against msvcr80, and probably not against
httpd+mod_perl against msvcr80.
Even errors silently ignored before cause segfaults now when activestate
tries to touch pseudo-posix files and visa versa because msvcr80 has all
of the additional parameter checking.
Really, building exclusively against either msvcr80 or msvcrt is the only
way to go, and that includes all the bits.
I found that too, so for testing with VC 8 (the free
version), I built both perl and apache with it. mod_perl
builds and works, although a handful of its
tests fail (using VC 6, all the mp2 tests passed).
However, these are most likely problems on the perl/mp2
side - there were a few of the Perl tests that failed
when I built Perl. I'll look into these and report on
the mp2 list.
