Thanks,

the patch is applied, and thinks look OK under Linux as well.

Do you have an explaination why config/auto/gdbm.pl seems to see a gdbm
library. I don't see 'gdbm3' mentioned there. Is the linker in MinGW
smarter than Parrot_load_lib() ?

I use a binary distribution available on http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/ (v 1.8.3-1)
This distribution contains :
        include/gdbm.h
        lib/libgdbm.lib (import library used by the linker)
        bin/gdbm3.dll   (used at run time)

config/auto/gdbm.pl produces a small executable (so check the availability of gdbm.h and libgdbm.lib).
This small executable loads automatically DLL (gdbm3.dll) as usually on Win32.
And I think that parrot loads manually DLL with Parrot_load_lib().

Francois.
