Hello,
i'm trying to install MooseX::Declare and Method::Signatures on windows Strawberry. For both of these modules, one of the prerequisites is Devel::BeginLift, and it won't install.

I tried :
cpan> install Devel::BeginLift which says

I tried to install by hand with dmake, and got the same error.
I searched on Google but didn't find a solution. The fact that i don't understand the error probably doesn't help.
It seems that the error is 

BeginLift.o:BeginLift.c:(.text+0x787): undefined reference to `Perl_pa
+d_swipe'

[download]
I didn't find on Google what Perl_pad_swipe is.

Any idea of what i could do from there?
