Hi,

After some further investigation and cleaning up my build environment, 
the .exe problem is limited to gcc 3.4.5 from mingw.org

I lack the skills to debug gcc build execs so I don't know why the exec 
faults at startup.

However, the 32bit tools from mingw-w64 produce working execs so I've 
updated the PPMs with these. This now means that the padre.exe in the 
PPMs works properly.

Regarding the gcc 3.4.5 failure - as I'm the only person experiencing 
this it is probably down to something awry in my mingw.org build 
environment here. I assume folks must be building Padre against 
ActivePerl + MinGW with success.

Regards

Mark
