??
same as the new libtool strictness which we don't quite like. (pass_all)
old-style dlltool/dllwrap works just fine for me.

Probably just not enough shared memory for cygperl.dll.
Or if not, some missing deps which have to be dlpreloaded.
But I don't test 7.4.5 anymore, since I'll take over from jason 8.x and 
I do test it with the current 8.x cvs version, which is much better. 
I'll add pgperl upstream regression tests, so it will get caught then. 
They are just cleaning up the mess.

So we'll need another full recompile of all our extensions? :)
No problem, if it stays then until perl6 or another xs API change,
which will require rebuilds.
