This is a build problem, I'm intentionally removing the vim_use group from the To and Cc. The log seems to imply that a required library is not found at link time. If ActiveState changed the directory structure, then maybe the Make_ming.mak is giving to the link command the command-line arguments to search for the old Perl libs -- in their old directory location? If my guess is true, a patch to Make_ming.mak (and other Makefiles for Windows) might be in order, setting the Perl lib directory to a different location depending either on version or on an additional (new) variable (settable by -D on the make command-line or by an environment variable).
