To get it running, get the source of plperl, extract it, run:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
in the plperl source directory.  In case of problems please contact the
author or the person who provides the binary package.

I don't know if postgres for Cygwin will be maintained in future, if so,
maybe the postgres maintainer includes plperl (or updates the postgres
package if plperl is already included there).

As third option, I'll upload the perl-5.8.2 package again, though this
may last some hours until it arrives at your mirror.
