Hi,

i'm trying to build a new perl, once again, but today i'm
getting several strange errors:

I configured with: 
==================
-de -Dmksymlinks -Dusedevel -Dusemultiplicity

Is it a problem under cygwin if i make symlinks from one diskdrive
to another hardrive, or is it a problem with perl Mksymlinks option?
It works always well if i stayed on the same hdd and same partition.

At beginning of Configure i got this:
=====================================
