Hi,
Here's what I get when I try to build Inline-0.44 on one of my Cygwin installations: 
Rob@desktop1 ~/pbld/Inline-0.44
$ perl Makefile.PL
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

Inline::C is packaged with Inline.pm because it is the most commonly u
+sed
Inline Language Support Module (ILSM).

See also: Inline::ASM, ::Awk, ::BC, ::Basic, ::Befunge, ::CPP (C++), :
+:CPR,
          ::Foo, ::Guile, ::Java, ::Octave, ::PERL, ::Python, ::Ruby, 
+::TT,
          ::Tcl and ::WebChat.

Config.pm indicates that your version of Perl was built with this C co
+mpiler:

    gcc.exe

I have located this compiler on your system:

Ummm ... I don't have a clue what that error is about - though I have this nagging feeling that I've come across it before. Anyone here know what needs to be done ?

Cheers,
Rob
