Subject: local $ENV{PERL5LIB} work around for Cygwin
"local $ENV{FOO};" appears to be less than working on Cygwin. This thread accounts the tale. http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.makemaker/2311 Culminating in: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.makemaker/2337 Long story short: The "local $ENV{PERL5LIB}" has to be set to some value or Cygwin breaks. So change the line in THS->default_inc() to be local $ENV{PERL5LIB} = ''; to fix Test::Harness on Cygwin.
We're now clean on Cygwin.
