The only gotcha I experienced was that I initially launched a
plain cmd.exe instead of the shell with the Visual Studio
envvars. With the former, I got lots of failures with static libs
using the CPAN-downloaded .par, but with the latter everything
went very smoothly.
I assume the problem was that the .par was built with Strawberry
+MinGW. Perhaps I should go back to asking others to generate
the .par's so that they're built for AS Perl + Visual Studio.
Strawberry Perl users can *always* build PAR themselves anyway.
I don't understand what happened in respect to the shell? Can you
elaborate? Is this a PAR issue I should look into fixing?
Yeah, I'm sorry for the lame, vague bug report. Stupid DOS shells
have such a tiny scrollback buffer by default that I lost the actual
error before writing that message.
