It seems Activestate auto-builds PPM files for CPAN modules, which answered my first question - how do I upload PPM files to Activestate. Unfortunately, it seems to be encountering an error with a module: Net::SNMPTrapd.

See the log at:

http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.10/1000/V/VI/VINSWORLD/Net-SNMPTrapd-0.02.d/log-20100126T021425.txt

I have built the module (including the 'nmake test TEST_VERBOSE=1' that seems to be causing the error) successfully on Windows XP, Mac OS (obviously with make, not nmake) and Debian before I uploaded to CPAN. Additionally, CPAN Testers show 14 pass, no fails as of yet.

Any idea what is causing the error: "Dubious, test returned 5 (wstat 1280, 0x500)" - which does not show up/occur when I run the 'make test' - and how to fix it?
