Hi,

I'm new to cygwin.  Using setup.exe, I have installed the default cygwin
installlation on XP, as well as the entire devel section.  I'm trying to use
cpan to install a Perl module (Text::CSV_XS) but it gives the following
error message:

Checking to see if your kit is complete...
Looks good.
Writing Makefile for Text::CSV_XS
     -- NOT OK
Running make test
  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
   make had returned bad status, install seems impossible


Does anyone know what may be wrong?

Thanks,
Chap
