Mark, You have been on this mailing list for years and have seen useful bug reports. This was not a useful bug report.
What version of PDL were you trying to install? Was it through CPAN or from source? Did you have all the dependencies installed? Which brand of Perl? Active Perl? Strawberry? Cygwin? Self-compiled? Which version of Perl? 5.12? 5.14? 5.16? Bleed? Which compiler? MS VC? Mingw? Cygwin? gcc? Have you managed to install other XS-based modules? If so, were they based on ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build, or were both successful? I may be able to get a copy of Windows 7 working shortly, but a few more details would go a long way in helping diagnose and solve the problem.
