Sounds like you provide question and answer together there.
Reini, could you email me a copy of the package source? I'd like to
see what you've done. Are you aware that about 9 months ago,
Win32.xs/Win32.pm were put into the core (and will no longer be part
of libwin32 at some point), with some changes/additions?
Also don't know if you saw I sent Gerrit a patch to automatically
include Win32CORE functions, in the hopes that he would release
5.8.6 that way. For 5.8.7 I want to get win32/wince/cygwin all
sharing the same source for those functions and the Win32 module.
