Hi,
I got some try on Strawberry Perl. I got similar result without installing
any tcl binary distribution.
----------
C:\strawberry\cpan\build\Tcl-1.16-0>perl Makefile.PL

Looks good

----------
The key is why it can pass the check Makefile.PL. In Strawberry Perl, the
following code got a weird result (Tcl.pm 1.16):
C:\strawberry\cpan\build\Tcl-1.16-0>perl -E "open(FH, 'foo |') or die; say
'I am still alive';"
I am still alive
'foo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
It seems open() with pipe returns true even if there is no 'foo' program
existed. I my Cygwin environment, the same program gets following result
% perl -E "open(FH, 'foo |') or die; say 'I am still alive';"
Died at -e line 1.
The Strawberry Perl I use is 5.24.4 x86_64 version in Win7.
The result in Tcl.pm 1.18
http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Tcl%201.18;os=mswin32;perl=5.28.0;reports=1
seems to be caused from the same issue.
