Will Active state perldevkit work?

I don't know. If it doesn't work with Strawberry Perl, you could still use Strawberry Perl to build Tk-804.027_500 for use with ActivePerl. Assuming that your ActivePerl is in C:\Perl, you would just run: 
C:\strawberry-perl\perl\bin\perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=C:/Perl/site
C:\strawberry-perl\dmake\bin\dmake test
C:\strawberry-perl\dmake\bin\dmake install

That should build and install Tk-804.027_500 into ActivePerl - from where you can use it with PDK.

However, I'm still a little puzzled as to why you're getting that build failure with ActivePerl. Which version of 'dmake' are you using ? I get: 
C:\_32>dmake -V
dmake - Version 4.7-20061120-SHAY (Windows / MS Visual C++)

Default Configuration:
 MAXLINELENGTH := 32766
 MAXPROCESSLIMIT := 4
 MAXPROCESS := 1
 .IMPORT .IGNORE: DMAKEROOT
 .MAKEFILES : makefile.mk makefile
 .SOURCE    : .NULL
 DMAKEROOT *= $(ABSMAKECMD:d)startup
 MAKESTARTUP := $(DMAKEROOT)\startup.mk

I've also used versions 4.4 and 4.5 without any problems.

Cheers,
Rob
