I did. I installed the latest snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

cygwin-inst-20100602.tar.bz2

Followed instructions on

http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.snapshots

started the cygwin shell again:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 me-PC 1.7.5s(0.227/5/3) 20100602 12:11:53 i686 Cygwin

Run make again, and I still get the same perl error.

I do not know perl much at all. I wonder if there is a way to turn some 
perl global debugging somehow, may be if there is a perl message files, 
that will help find the problem? I need to google this.

I am not running perl directly, it is being called from within the 
latex2html makefile.

Next step for me I suppose is to see if I can use my windows perl 
installation (Active Perl 5.1) from inside cygwin instead of the cygwin 
perl.
