I ran into a problem about the "open-sourcesness" of PAR based solutions.

PAR uses searches for and includes perl*.dll on Windows. But if I use ActivestatePerl, I would be using PAR to redistribute their dll, something which I am quite sure AS-Software does not like.

Sadly, I could find no 'working' Perl binary for Windows which offers the same ease of use as AS-Perl (PPM!). The problem comes down to this: other Perl distributions make it very difficult to install CPAN-Modules as most modules expect a working C-enviroment...

*sigh* when will Perl Modules be self-sufficient enough to ignore C and make?
