Uh oh :)

$ perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for cygwin-multi

Yup.

I doubt it, in fact I think that would be a pretty dodgy thing to do. At
what point should perl give up looking for variations in what the user typed
as a name?

Since nobody seems to know I will ask on the Cygwin list. I know a couple of
people have mentioned that they have it running, and assumed they had got
their build info from here. If I get an answer I will encourage them to send
it here as well, so at least it is in the archives.

Thanks,
