Curiously, the precompiled Win32 ModPerl that perl.apache.org references
for people to download does not have crypt() compiled in. Yet ActiveState's
binary distribution of build 522 does. Odd.
Is there a reason that the source distributions default build would be
different from ActiveState's default build?
Admittedly I have never bothered compiling Perl on Win32 as I only use it
to play with (not serious production for the obvious limitations of
mod_perl on Win32). So I have not seen the reference to this readme you are
referring to.
