Did Cygwin "setup.exe" prompt you to install the "gcc-4" package when you
updated perl?
I thought "setup.exe" would prompt the user if any additional packages needed
to be installed.
no. gcc-4, make and more are not automatically installed with perl.
you will only need when you compile your own XS packages with cpan.
XML::LibXML is included in the new package perl_vendor
Since a lot of people are having issues because 'perl_vendor' is not
installed when should, wouldn't be better to set perl_vendor as a
mandatory dependency of perl so just everyone gets it installed? I guess
package size won't be an issue.
