Well, the first problem we encounter is this gem in the GNUMakefile (and
there is an equivalent in the MSVC build setup):
ifeq ($(*PORTNAME*), win32)
perl_archlibexp := $(*subst \,/,$(perl_archlibexp)*)
perl_privlibexp := $(*subst \,/,$(perl_privlibexp)*)
perl_embed_ldflags = -L$(*perl_archlibexp*)/CORE -lperl58
override CPPFLAGS += -DPLPERL_HAVE_UID_GID
/# Perl on win32 contains /* within comment all over the header file,
//# so disable this warning.
/override CFLAGS += -Wno-comment
endif
Note the hardcoded perl58 library name.
If we fix that then we get the previously reported crash. I'll try to
put some traces in to see exactly why that might be happening.
cheers
