Unfortunatelly, those of us who use Perl under Windows / MSVC Compiler 
cannot use v6.pm, due to the fact that it has an indirect dependency on 
Devel::Caller which fails to work using that compiler combination (i.e., 
fails all tests after a build using its makefile and Visual Studio 2003 as 
the C compiler).

Bummer. You could check out the Vanilla/Strawberry Perl effort at

Indeed it is known that Devel::Caller currently fails some tests  
under Perl 5.8 with ithreads enabled;

its author, Richard Clamp, is looking into a solution.

For the time being, as v6.pm does not use the parts of Devel::Caller  
that fails the tests, a simple

force install should still get you a working v6-alpha.

Thanks!
