Is this actually a blead problem, or an EUMM problem? I'm hoping you can guide us on a fix - what would / should EUMM do about this?

This rather looks like a blead problem. Leon

To be more precise: On an unthreaded perl build on Windows the interpreter variables need to added to the export list. The error message is suggesting that this isn't working. Leon

Leon, could you cross-link in a suitable way this matter to an issue for p5p? (and probably close this one)

It appears to be a EUMM problem. I've looked further into this. The symbols are being exported, but under the conditions in the failing tests, they aren't being properly imported. For the failing tests, the Makefile is being generated with LINKTYPE=static in Makefile.PL, but then built with LINKTYPE=dynamic. The LINKTYPE=static Makefile adds -DPERLDLL to the definition of CCFLAGS, without that value depending on the LINKTYPE value, so LINKTYPE=dynamic doesn't override it. -DPERLDLL controls whether symbols, including data, is marked with __declspec(dlliexport) or __declspec(dllimport) and in the failing cases this means the symbols are being marked for export, which is ignored since the symbols aren't in the image. Due to the way data is imported on Win32 this means that the symbols then aren't found. The only fix I can see is for the generated Makefile to make whether CCFLAGS includes -DPERLDLL depend on the LINKTYPE parameter supplied to $(MAKE). Otherwise I can only see not supporting switching LINKTYPE between Makefile.PL and make invocation.

That is surprising. I mean 02-xsdynamic should only contain LINKTYPE=dynamic tests, right? What would cause the LINKTYPE to be static? Show quoted text

Does static linking even work on Windows? As far as I know, we don't support this anyway. Leon

The problem here is that some of the test-cases have a subdir that is set to LINKTYPE=static in the subdir-Makefile.PL, but then during make the LINKTYPE=dynamic is passed through. Possibly solutions include either not passing it through (shouldn't break anything, but given that it's MakeMaker I'm probably wrong), or just give up on testing setting the linktype that late (I can't think of any convincing use-case anyway).

blead now has a custom patch to EUMM https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/18157. Should the same patch go into EUMM?

I've submitted Tony's change here so it can be reviewed. https://github.com/Perl-Toolchain-Gang/ExtUtils-MakeMaker/pull/369
