Groan ... those are the exact same versions that I have. And I'm running build 1007, too. It's therefore rather hard to understand how it could be building for me, but not for you.

If you like, try building it again - but this time, unpack the source to some location that's completely outside of the C:/Perl tree - say, C:/mybuild. Then 'cd' to C:/mybuild/PAR-Packer-1.002 and run 'perl Makefile.PL' followed by 'dmake test'. If the same failure occurs, 'cd' to C:/mybuild/PAR-Packer-1.002/myldr and enter:

C:\Perl\site\bin\g++.exe main.o my_par_pl.o -L"C:\Perl\lib\CORE" C:\Perl\lib\CORE\perl510.lib -o par.exe

If, by some chance, that succeeds (in which case there will be no output at all) then do a 'cd ..' to get back to the C:/mybuild/PAR-Packer-1.002 folder and then re-run 'dmake test'.

I'm really clutching at straws here - as that's all there seems to be to grab hold of. And I'm probably just wasting your time, for which I apologise.

Cheers,
Rob
