Subject: Makefile.PL compiler detection breaks with dmake (Win32 VanillaPerl)
Makefile.PL compiler detection fails with dmake-4.4-20060206 on Win32 VanillaPerl: Show quoted text
> perl Makefile.PL
Testing if you have a C compiler dmake: Error: -- Don't know how to make `test.o' Changing the logic in the Makefile.PL to this seems to work: system( "$Config{cc} -o test.o test.c" ) and no_cc(); foreach ( 'test.c', "test.o" ) This might not be more widely compatible (assumes that "-o" is a valid flag for all compilers) but the existing compiler check already makes assumptions about the existance of "make". For even better compatibility, what about using ExtUtils::CBuilder and "have_compiler()"?
With Andy updating Test::Pod to work on Vanilla/Strawberry, this is now the highest provile module failure on Vanilla/Strawberry Perl. Adam K

The same problem was already fixed for Params::Validate, so hopefully, it's just a matter of some copy/paste from the Makefile.PL. David

It's already in SVN, I just need to release it.
