I'm not disputing your analysis but, though I've reviewed it a number of times, I'm just not seeing what you apparently do.

What I'm focusing on is . . .

My version of Perl seems to be telling me that I have MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

C:\ProgramFiles\Perl\bin>perl -v<p>

This is perl, v5.8.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

and

The Config-Ini.ppd seems to tell me that it is for (among other implementations):

  <IMPLEMENTATION>
    <CODEBASE HREF="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread/Config-Ini.tar.gz" />
    <DEPENDENCY NAME="Tie-IxHash" VERSION="1,21,0,0" />
    <ARCHITECTURE NAME="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread" />
    <OS NAME="MSWin32" />

To me, newbie that I am, I was looking at the value for ArchitectureName, and that appears to be the same as that which my version of Perl reports. I'm seeing the error msg as just combining the name and version number.

Could I have a clarification, please. Thanks!
