You have to either use cygwin perl with the cygwin gcc compiler and tools or use ActiveState perl and build with the Microsoft Visual C 6.0 compiler, or you can compile perl yourself with any of the supported compilers on Windoze (Microsoft, Borland, MinGW, Cygwin). I.E. you have to use the tools that were used to compile perl when you build extensions (mostly). Regards, Randy.
