I'm having trouble getting this sample POE code to work under Win32 (XP) with Activestate Perl 5.8.0. I have installed the POE, TermReadKey, and Term-Cap modules. Here is the error I get: 
  >perl poetest.pl
Your vendor has not defined POSIX macro B38400, used at D:/Perl/site/l
+ib/POE/Whe
el/ReadLine.pm line 89
Compilation failed in require at (eval 31) line 1.

Seems like I may need to install Cygwin. But I'm curious as to what this macro at line 89 is, and if there is a workaround for Win32 - here is the relevant code from the ReadLine.pm module: 
Line 12: use POSIX qw(B38400);
Line 88: # Get the terminal speed for Term::Cap.
         my $ospeed = B38400;
