Actually it looks like the situation might be even worse with 0.69. I've just built (using 0.69, perl 5.8.0) a simple script into an executable on my desktop (Win2k). The exe runs fine on that machine but when I try to run it on my Win2k laptop (which doesn't have perl 5.8.0) I get: Can't locate loadable object for module IO in @INC (@INC contains: CODE(0x7d9bb8) .) at D:/p4/Apps/Gecko/MSI/data/ACTIVE~1/Perl/site/lib/PAR/Heavy.pm line 118 Compilation failed in require at D:/p4/Apps/Gecko/MSI/data/ACTIVE~1/Perl/lib/IO/Handle.pm line 256.
