in reply to Strawberry and CPAN

PerlMagick seems to have some really ugly custom Makefile.PL code. For Windows, the README says to use "perl Makefile.nt" and then "nmake install" -- which clearly assumes an ActiveState/MSVC/nmake setup. Moreover, I can't even replicate your error with my own Strawberry. Are you running 5.10.0 or 5.8.8 Alpha 2?

    It's the 5.10.0 version.


    Nobody says perl looks like line-noise any more
    kids today don't know what line-noise IS ...

      I agree with Syphilis, below, that it would help to know other modules that this has happened on for comparision.

      Could you please post the generated Makefile? I'm curious to see if anything strange is in it.
