No, it is not marked as redistributable. However, since the source code to the DLL is available under the same terms as Perl, you could technically build an identical version yourself that would be redistributable.

One reason it is not marked as redistributable is because it claims to be 

    Binary build XXX provided by ActiveState Corp. http://www.ActiveSt
+ate.com

We kind of expect people who build their own Perl from the sources to change this string (and not call it ActivePerl). :) The reason is that people come to ActiveState support when they run into problems with ActivePerl, and this is not desireable when the program hasn't even been distributed by ActiveState. It is expensive enough to provide (limited) free tech support for a product that is also provided for free.
