However, I have a problem that the DynaLoader doesn't seem to load the POSIX extension. It says that it has an error loading the POSIX dll. My question is... does this have to do with the dl_cygwin32.xs file used to build DynaLoader? Basically this file references the impure_ptr in the cygwin DLL. The file is dated some time in 97, and I wasn't sure if maybe the DLL was updated since then. I'd need someone else's help figuring this out, who knows more of the internals of the DLL. I have got the rest of Perl to (seemingly) work, but I need the POSIX library also. Hopefully someone out there can help... Thanks. By the way, I an using the binutils2.9.1, and the latest coolview and B19.1 stuff.
