I once emailed you to comment that on my WIN2000/cygwin platform, that
WWW::Mechanize failed by spewing binary. You later inquired whether the
later version was better. It does not spew binary for me now (thanks!),
but it still fails tests. Below is a transcript including "perl -V". I
would like to use your module, and I am happy to try installing a bug-fix
version by hand.
Thanks for your efforts for the perl community.
Regards,
Mike
