It builds without incident for me using ActivePerl with mingw/dmake - hard to believe that there's not a ppm package available for it at the AS repo, but I couldn't find one there either.

If you already have mingw/dmake installed, it should build fine for you, too. What errors do you get ?
If you don't already have mingw/dmake you can remedy that with
ppm install MinGW

If all else fails, I could send you a ppm package for it (if you /msg me an email address that will accept an email with a tar.gz attachment).

Cheers,
Rob

UPDATE: Looks like it's not building for some because libz (which is found by default on my machine) is unlocatable. Once that's taken care of, it should build fine.
