David,

Strawberry Perl has left me in a stuck state as some of SVK's dependencies have dependencies that do not agree with MinGW/Win32.  Really weird stuff like line continuations failing to be recognized as such in one case.  I've been distracted by $Work but I'm hoping to get some time for some poking and asking some questions in the next few days.

Just today I tried trunk again with VC6 which cleanly builds SVK-1.08. Here is a link the Makefile.PL and test results:

I'm open for suggestions to try or if someone would like my Perl image to test with, I'll pass it along.
