As a followup to my last message,

The reason that I wanted libwin32 was to drive Word and Excel via COM. I
discovered that COM was somehow borked (didn't work properly under VB
either). I assumed that the perl compile problem was due to bitrot on
that box and I've switched to another machine, which has ActivePerl
installed on it. I'd prefer to use Cygwin's perl for CPAN and
consistency with Linux, but it's all working so I don't want to rock the
boat at the moment...
