Im having some problems getting XML::LibXML to build in cpan. I have decided to just download XML::LibXML::Common to try building the dependencies first and going from there. Below is the errors I am getting. I built perl from source on my box with dmake & mingw. it compiled ok and all test passed. In my path I have mingw/bin and perl/bin in my path. I got all of the binaries from Igor's site and have them in the appropriate mingw directories Does any one have any suggestions?
