The presence of -DASMINLINE and Assembler messages make me think that it's very unlikely that a generic C build is being attempted.

IIRC, the way to get that C build is to start with perl Makefile.PL machine=none so give that a try - but make sure you run make realclean first.

found a repository for ActivePerl that included Math::Pari, having fun seeing how far I can kick it!

Math::Pari that's built for ActivePerl won't work at all with Cygwin's perl.

BTW, there are better options for SSH than Net::SSH::Perl - eg I think Net::OpenSSH should be fine on Cygwin, or there's also Net::SSH2.

Cheers,
Rob
