Hi Ross, i have the same problem of accessing the registry via Perl. I tried to compile the libwin32-0.18 module from cpan but it was a desaster.
As a quick solution i used wrapped calls of reg.exe (from the resource kit) via system() and backticks but that's a very dirty solution. I don't understand how many Perl versions there are on the way (ActiveState etc). Daniel Risacher posted a message some time ago: search the headers for "Win32::API perl module" perhaps this might help you. I did not yet test it.
