Did you verify that it was Win32CORE at fault by trying a perl built
without it?

Perl itself doesn't use atoi, nor does Win32CORE.xs.  I'm guessing
Win32CORE is calling a win32 routine that isn't fully supported
on win9x.  One of:

WideCharToMultiByte
CloseHandle
CopyFileA
CreateProcessA
FindClose
FindFirstFileA
FormatMessageA
FreeLibrary
GetComputerNameA
GetCurrentDirectoryA
GetDriveTypeA
GetFullPathNameA
GetLastError
GetProcAddress
GetShortPathNameA
GetTickCount
GetUserNameA
GetVersionExA
GetVolumeInformationA
LoadLibraryA
LookupAccountNameA
SetLastError
Sleep
