Thank you very much. I wonder if the community around that module have just stopped producing new releases. Perhaps that would explain why a patch provided 21 months ago isn't in CPAN yet.
Have you encountered the other problem I mentioned, where saying
perl Makefile.PL
will, in some cases (like Text::CSV) result in a message saying that no perl 5 could be found? The only perl in Cygwin is a perl 5, so the message seems rather strange.
