[Win32] PDL being shipped with Strawberry Perl-5.20.0

Hi,

For those interested, there are now 32 bit and 64 bit releases of Strawberry Perl 5.20.0 (portable) that ship with PDL.
These distros are listed at http://strawberryperl.com/releases.html.

Also included in these editions of Strawberry Perl are a number of libraries that are needed for building additional PDL::* modules.
Specifically, those libraries are fftw3, gnuplot, gsl, hdf4, hdf5, plplot, proj, szip, talib, netcdf, and lapack.

kmx's intention is to provide these builds for the 5.20.x releases, and then to review whether it's worth his trouble to continue to provide them.
So I think it's a good idea for those Windows users interested in using PDL to get behind these distros .... otherwise they may be discontinued.

Cheers,
Rob

PS: As a side note, my PPM packages for PDL (and other modules) for perl-5.20 have not yet been built, but should become available over the next week or so.
