Hi,
As ActiveState have released a beta of the first 5.10 ActivePerl, thought I'd
check if my PPM building scripts work OK. Thought it would be nice to provide
5.10 PPMs as soon as ActivePerl 1000 is released (PPMs should also work with
the first non-alpha release of Strawberry Perl, I think).
Can report everything builds fine under MinGW and seems to work as expected.
Only alteration required was in Wx::Demo.
At line 360 : $INC{$f} = 'skip it';
causes a fatal error.

This seems to intimate that you can only set %INC entries within the code that
returns the filepath or content that initially sets %INC. Not tested this out
in practice though.
Anyway, simply commenting out line 360 causes an error in the following block
of code - but this time it is not fatal, so I was able to load wxperl_demo.
Regards
Mark
