Maybe.  Maybe it's just the absurd amount of heap required during
compilation.  At any event, you can still do a binary install --
install PAR::Dist first, and do this:

    perl -MPAR::Dist 
-e"install_par(q(http://aut.dyndns.org/par/PAR-0.71-MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.6.1.par))"

and it should install itself.

Interesting.  I now and then see tempfile that fails rmdir().  I'll
certainly trace it more in the future.

I share this feeling. :-)
