Hi,

I believe the failure is happening in the XSLoader::dl_load_file() call.
If C:/ActiveTcl/bin/tcl86t.dll exists, then I'd be thinking it's not a valid dll.
Perhaps it's a 32-bit dll when a 64-bit dll is required (or vice-versa) ?

It's also worth reading the comments in XSLoader.pm relating to dl_load_file failures: 
# Many dynamic extension loading problems will appear to come from
# this section of code: XYZ failed at line 123 of DynaLoader.pm.
# Often these errors are actually occurring in the initialisation
# C code of the extension XS file. Perl reports the error as being
# in this perl code simply because this was the last perl code
# it executed.

my $libref = dl_load_file($file, 0) or do { 
  require Carp;
  Carp::croak("Can't load '$file' for module $module: " . dl_error());
};

What's your perl -V output ?

Cheers,
