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.
