It's not that I don't believe you, but I can't seem to replicate your problem :) It works for me on the first try.

I included it with the -l flag but it still fails with the same error... :-(

You shouldn't need the -l flag for those, the -l flag is for things like libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll

I don't even know what to try now...

Try the usual, that is, upgrade, check the FAQ, check the bug que, turn on debugging, then show us the output.

Here is how I tried 

$ type foo.pl
use IO::File; print $_,$/ for %INC, grep /dll/i,%::;

$ pp -vvv -o foo.exe foo.pl
