Hello Tony,

> I'm confused! My current version of perl is 5.8.1-1 and yet this update is a

5.8.1-1 is a test release which works only with cygwin-1.5.2 or later,
if it works for you, it is ok, just stay with it, perl-5.8.0 is a
'regular' bugfix for the current (stable) release which works also with
cygwin < 1.5, i.e. with 1.3.22.
