ActiveState had problems like that with their build system, but they release more often.

Just to be clear about this - the problem was *not* specific to Strawberry's build system. It was a bug in the perl source that affected *every* build of perl (not just Strawberry) that was built using 'dmake'. The bug was actually in 'win32/makefile.mk', and therefore did not affect perls built using 'nmake' (such as ActvePerl) - which use 'win32/Makefile' instead.

Cheers,
Rob
