Here is some additional info that may be helpful to know. We had this working on a Windows 2000 Server, it is only now that we are experiencing the problem after migrating to a Windows Server 2003 R2 server.
It appears that the CPAN Testers already reported this issue, so it is not just our environment that has the issue. See the CPAN report here: http://groups.google.com/group/perl.cpan.testers/browse_thread/thread/5f26c7 fd3de382d1/9cffc37306dda066?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=module+build+multiple+underscor es#9cffc37306dda066 Ben Fyvie -----Original Message----- From: Ben Fyvie [mailto:ben.fy...@champsoftware.com] Sent: Monday, September 21, 2009 1:17 PM To: module-build@perl.org Subject: error creating 'BUILD' script I am getting the following error and I don't know where to look to fix it: D:\perl_modules\Module-Build-0.35.tar\Module-Build-0.35\Module-Build-0.35>pe rl Build.PL Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3) Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3) Checking whether your kit is complete...
