5.8.7 ships with Test::Harness 2.48 which doesn't have this code.

It fails to run the tests from the command line with the default
installation of perl-5.8.7 for Cygwin?


Huh?


From the initial report on p5p and the makemaker list:
===
we are on Cygwin: 1.5.18(0.132/4/2) 2005-07-02 20:30, perl is the latest stable release: This is perl, v5.8.7 built for cygwin-thread-multi-64int

We have a problem building modules, i.e. make test fails if a .pm file
in the source package is located below the root in a subdirectory called
'lib'.

and your question, my reply:
===

The dafault Test::Harness which is included with perl-5.8.7:
$ perl -e 'use Test::Harness; print "$Test::Harness::VERSION\n";'
2.48

Andrew found relevant cahnges and you replied:

Scott found (Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
that there is s.th. wrong with the perl version of unsetenv(),
unfortunately it seems perl doesn't use unsetenv(), maybe it would work
if it would be used.  I think we should fix the code where perl unsets
the envronment settings.  This is where I need some help since I don't
know where it is done.
