Vanilla Perl is unsupported at this time. As its web site says, it's highly experimental and not intended for production use.
I know it's been a while, but I'm reply to this ticket since is's linked from the Vanilla/Strawberry wiki: http://win32.perl.org/wiki/index.php?title=Vanilla_Perl_Problem_Modules&oldid=4687

As of Sep 2011, this particular test is simply skipped on Win32:

t/30_loops/io_poll/k_signals_rerun.t ............... skipped: IO::Poll is not 100% compatible with MSWin32

Merely being linked to isn't grounds for reopening the ticket. That wiki page also links to resolved tickets, and we don't need to reopen them. I'm still not prepared to personally support all lineages of Perl on all platforms, and this includes Vanilla Perl. That said, patches are welcome as long as they don't break lineages I do support.

That's a completely different test. What about t/30_loops/select/k_signals_rerun.t ? I'm leaving this ticket open for the time being.
Marking as stalled. Patches still welcome, and in cases like this where additional platform support is requested, I really need them.
20 months without a patch.
