in reply to Puzzling Prototype Mismatch Error

It looks like Win32::IPC contains some special treatment of the INFINITE constant, which is conflicting with what Exporter is doing. Since I can't test it here this is a guess: If you're not using the INFINITE constant in your code, you could try use Win32::ChangeNotify '!INFINITE';

    No, there’s no inherent conflict between Win32::ChangeNotify (or Win32::IPC) and Exporter:

        C:\Perl\Strawberry\strawberry-perl-5.20.0.1-64bit-PDL\perl\sit

    Looks like the conflict derives from another sub INFINITE somewhere in the OP’s code, as Corion suggests.
