Hmm. That is weird. Best of luck wth that.

So as a really-non-windows person... VC6 is a C compiler that's only
available by purchase? And this is using some build of Perl completely
different from Strawberry?

(By the way, at least one or two of the failures near the bottom just
mean that SVN-Mirror is out of date -- sync-replace-nocopy is
something I added last night to test a bug fix in SVN-Mirror trunk
(not yet CPANned).)
