I'm a little concerned that perhaps you didn't install Win32::API correctly.
Can you confirm that you built and installed Win32::API by running (in
succession):
perl Makefie.PL
make test
make install

and that each of the steps ran without error ?

Afaict, the first test in SerialPort test1.t simply tries to load
Win32::SerialPort ..... and that "generated a core", which makes me suspect
that there's something wrong with Win32::API.

As another check, does the following script simply print "done", and then
exit:

use Win32::API;
print "done\n";
__END__

If that works ok, try changing the first line to "use Win32::SerialPort;"
(without quotes) and see what happens. If everything is still ok maybe you
can hack at test1.t to see just where the problem arises.

That's about all I can come up with for the moment :-)

Cheers,
Rob
