The chunk in quotes after -e is a standard Perl script for testing an
installation. The "use" statement includes Config.PM. "-d" tests if the
value of archlib (in Config.PM) is a directory. With a healthy
installation, there is no output. The backtick assignment to
_perl_archlib is a noop; for it to work one would have to add "print
$Config{archlib};" to the exit(0) block.

Have you tried running testperl.cmd? It might tell you what's wrong.

I've only been catching highlights on the news; more obsessed with
trying to figure out why both Warpzilla flips images if an img tag
specifies width and/or height.
