in thread Tk in Strawberry on W10

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/eserte/perl-tk/builds/48445961, the AppVeyor build on the most recent commit, shows it building OK on Strawberry Perl?

Is the problem you're describing captured in one of the open issues on there? When I asked Slaven for co-maint and a commit bit in the past (for GraphViz::Makefile), he was very receptive.

    The page says "github workflow for FreeBSD". Is it really Strawberry?

    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
      I double-taked at that for several microseconds. But that's the most recent commit message. Look at the bottom of the log, where it mentions updating C:\Strawberry.

        <UPDATE>
        I just tried running cpan -i Tk on 64-bit SP-5.32.1 and that built and installed Tk-804.036 just fine.
        I think the key to that success is that 5.32.1 uses gcc-8.3.0, whereas 5.38.2 uses gcc-13.1.0.
        Downgrading to SP-5.32.1 would therefore seem to be another option for the OP.
        </UPDATE>

        Also, near the top of the page to which you linked, I see "5 months ago by Slaven Rezic".
        And there's no mention of perl version and archname, or of gcc-version, which could be relevant.
        The Tk source that I tried was from the github repo as of last week.

        Still ... if you can tell me from where I can obtain this source that you are referencing, I'll give it a go.

        Cheers,
