[...]I'm trying to get PAR 0.87 (from http://par.perl.org) installed with the perl currently in cygwin (v5.8.6). This install worked with an older version of perl that was in cygwin (perl, v5.8.2 built for cygwin-thread-multi-64int)
The error during the install process (normally just: perl Makefile.PL && make && make test && make install
) is as follows:

This seems to be similar (in a superficial sense at least) to the problem described in January on this list relating to Courier-0.47 (http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2005-01/msg01231.html) due to the references to Win32CORE and `_boot_'.
So, I was wondering if there was anything that changed between these two versions of perl (in terms of the way they were built, etc), that would cause this problem, or is there somewhere else that I should be looking?
Thanks,
This is an already known issue with the first 5.8.6 perl including the Win32CORE parts. It was released an update to fix this issue, please upgrade to the latest release.
