Thanks for the report. Your "Subject:" line is absolutely correct -- win32 doesn't supply an fnmatch implementation AFAIK, and so cannot offer an fnmatch.h header. I'm investigating ways to make this more obvious (doc. updates and perhaps a flashy failure during ``perl Makefile.PL''). In the meantime, I am resolving this ticket as "not a bug." Regards, Mike
