If I run this after nmake and nmake install on win32 (XP), compiled with VC++ 6.0 SP5 PP5: 
C:\pkg\src>perl5.12.2 -le "print for @INC"
C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\site_perl/5.12.0\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\site_perl/5.12.0
C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\site_perl/5.10.1
C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\site_perl
.

[download]

All it seems to be able to get is the dirs I set in inc_version_list (for the earlier version's site_perl lib dirs) and the contents of PERL5LIB env var, as well as . at the end. But it doesn't have C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\5.12.2 or C:\pkg\common\lib\perl5\site_perl\5.12.2 in @INC, which are the primary lib dirs, so it can't even load Config.pm (so even perl -V croaks.)

All the /(install)?(arch|priv|site)lib.*/ entries in config.vc and equivalents in config_h.vc appear to be in order, so I really don't know what I could be missing that would result in the primary lib dirs not being in @INC.

Is there something that needs to be edited or executed that I could have missed. README.win32 doesn't seem to make any mention.

Thanks for any help.
