I got a Celeron 333 MHz, Windows 2000, MS VC++ 6.0
I surmise it relates to my perl configuration. I've already installed
Parrot a couple of times and it was all okay. But recently I reconfigured
my Perl and today on trying to get a fresh copy from the CVS repository
installed, I got BoOM! Then I put out the old 0.0.10 release from CPAN
and nothing changed.
Thanks.
