Aaah, yes - it happens like that with 'make test'. One way to fix: remove your print statement and change the last line of the test script so it reads: print "".(($lpbuffer !~ /TEMP/i)?"$lpbuffer not ": "$lpbuffer ") . "ok 3\n"; That should make it visible.

I'm not really sure about Cygwin's perl directory structure - I think you should at least have the file X/Win32/API.pm where 'X' denotes one of the @INC directories (probably '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin/'). > now when i run your simple test script, it still returns > Sementation Fault. core dumped > > and when i attempt to run the test.t in perl: > $ perl t/test.t > 1..2 > Segmentation fault (core dumped) > Instead of running: $ perl t/test.t try: $ perl -Mblib t/test.t That will use the Win32::API that you have just built - if it works ok (and it should) then we know for sure you have built a functional Win32::API, and it just remains to get that properly built module, properly installed. It seems inconsistent that 'make test' doesn't segfault, but everything else does ...
