We know. perl-libwin32 cannot be used with perl-5.8.6.
You have to install it by yourself via CPAN or wait for the official 
package update.

perl-win32-gui will be seperate.
For the simple Win32 FFI module (Win32::API) I'm not sure yet, but the 
other two (FFI and C::DynaLib) do work fine with callbacks.
