Well,
now everything seems to work, although one oddity is that the make
utility included with MinGW 5.1.4 (mingw32-make.exe) doesn't seem to be
able to make the Makefile generated by Makefile.PL.
The generated Makefile will be one that has been written for
whatever-it-is-that 'perl -V:make' reports.
'perl -V:make' won't report 'mingw32-make.exe' - and even if it did, I don't
think ExtUtils::MakeMaker would know how to write a makefile for that
particular flavour of make.
Either nmake or dmake should work fine with MinGW on ActivePerl.
Cheers,
Rob
