All of the tests on Cpan tester show that it won't install. It doesn't on mine either. It fails on the test that looks like this: 
TEST "shouldn't be able to slurp failed pipe";

eval{slurp "-|", "non-existent_prog"}
    ? ok 0, $desc
    : like $@,
           qr/^Can't open '-|non-existent_prog'/,
           $desc;

I really need it to work because it's a required dependency for GraphViz2. The module doesn't look too long, but I don't think I can figure out how to fix it for Windows. Besides that, when I download the tar ball and try to install it using make (instead of using the cpan utility), it fails with this error: 
/bin/sh: C:strawberryperlbinperl.exe: command not found
make: *** [blib\lib\Perl6\\.exists] Error 127

As if there are some Window's forward slashes it's not escaping anywhere. Can anyone give me some tips on how to fix the module and get it up and running? ***UPDATE Thanks all. Yes, I did need to use dmake, not make. I followed tye's advice and just installed it. It probably won't make too big a difference. The bug report mentioned the same thing.
