What do you mean by "no paths"? I downloaded Test-Harness-3.21.tar.gz
directly from CPAN and looked at the contents. Every file is contained in
the Test-Harness-3.21 directory or a subdirectory thereof (bin, examples,
inc, lib, t, xt), so every file in the tar listing is preceded by a path.
Have you tried manually installing the module with:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
(or does that not work on your Windows system?)
