Subject: gcc check under Windows is broken
in ExtUtils::MM_Win32 line 35: my $GCC = $Config{'cc'} =~ /\bgcc$/i ? 1 : 0; $Config{'cc'} can take a values like "C:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe" either that dollar sign must go away or the extension must also be checked: my $GCC = $Config{'cc'} =~ /\bgcc(?:\.exe)?$/i ? 1 : 0; I was getting nonsense failures recently (and unfortunately, sending nonsense test reports), because of this. Thanks, Burak

Sorry, was checking if the ability to set status via email is enabled. Apparently not.
This is still being a rather big problem and the fix is easy and works. What is the status on getting the fix above live? Can there be something done to help?
This was fixed in 617e86d4c8d00c90798d2234ec3356b4736b91b0 by Christian Walde and will be in the next release.
