Note: PAR::Packer 0.991 builds (incl. "make test") fine here (Cygwin
Perl 5.10.0 on
WindowsXP) - except that it skips t/20-pp.t altogether because it doesn't
realize that "/usr/bin/perl.exe" (from $^X) and "/usr/bin/perl5.10.0" (from
$Config{startperl} sans the leading "#!") denote the same file. If I coerce
t/20-pp.t do run its tests anyway, they succeed.
As an experiment, please comment out the last "unlink ..." in
PAR::Packer::DESTROY():

and re-run "make test". This prevents the file mentioned in the error
message to be
deleted at the end of the run. Try running this exe (should print just
a usage message
when run without arguments), perhaps in a command window (i.e.
"outside" Cygwin).
Also check its Windows security descriptors and access control lists and if they
are different from an executable that "works" under Cygwin. The code
in PAR::Packer
does a "chmod 755" on this file, but perhaps that's not enough depending
on your Windows and Cygwin set up, cf.
