Having some issues here with the Storable module. Whenever I try to install it, it always fails with this: 
cl -c    -nologo -Gf -W3 -MD -Zi -DNDEBUG -O1 -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DNO_
+STRICT -DHAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DNO_HASH_SEED -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPER
+L_IMPLICIT_SYS -DUSE_PERLIO -DPERL_MSVCRT_READFIX -MD -Zi -DNDEBUG -O
+1    -DVERSION=\"2.13\"  -DXS_VERSION=\"2.13\"  "-IC:\Perl\lib\CORE" 
+  Storable.c
'cl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable pr
+ogram or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe' : return code

Stop.

I've tried getting it from CPAN (perl -MCPAN -e 'install Storable'), ppm (couldn't find it there), and d/l'ing it manually and trying it that way... no go on any of them (same error).

For reference, I'm typing "perl Makefile.pl", and then "nmake" (or "nmake test") -- on either of those nmake's, that is where it fails.

Any suggestions? (I'm using WinXP on this system)
