Thanks for the idea, but no :-( 

$^O just has "MSWin32" or something like that in it. Although i'm not sure
whether that is because I'm running Cygwin on Win98 or because my perl is
the window ActivePerl rather than the unix/linux/cygwin version.

Any other ideas?

I could just set an environment variable in .profile, but not a very
portable solution.
