in reply to building win32 perl using cygwin

Great job! I'll give it a try today. Any plans on getting it added into the current Perl's to give some more options for Perl builds on Win32?

For everyone's information, most of the ../lib/Config/Extensions.t failures have also been seen on recent Win32 Perl smokes, although, not all of them.

    Yes, adding things into current perl would be the idea. The thing I'm most hesitant about is the makemaker change...it would be nice to hear from someone that it doesn't break other win32 builds (not to mention unix ones, though testing with regular cygwin should expose any problems there).
