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).


Best regards,
Tony.
