I want to acknowledge Ken as well as Rob, thanks guys, you've both provided pretty definitive proof that something's amiss with my system perl.

I get something quite different:

That is very different indeed. Everything just worked the way it's supposed to. I noticed that it seems you are running your own locally-built perl: "/cygdrive/c/cygperl-5.40.0-d/bin/perl.exe". And Ken is running a locally built perl managed with perlbrew. I think my assignment for this weekend may be to build my own CygwinPerl.

You got the following g++ commandline:


g++  --shared  -Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--export-all-symbols -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base -L/usr/local/lib -fstack-protector-strong  CSV_XS.o  -o blib/arch/auto/Text/CSV_XS/CSV_XS.dll  \
  /cygdrive/c/cygperl-5.40.0-d/lib/5.40.0/cygwin-thread-multi/CORE/cygperl5_40_0.dll -lpthread -ldl -lcrypt  \

The dangling backslash \ continue is in my output too, and is strange, but it is just an artifact that has nothing to do with my build failure.

Thanks again Rob.
