--- not sure why but adding above reply changed it to open again... so leaving it, as bug system is 'resisting' my changing it back... ;-/;
This is *likely* due to a bad-setup on my system. Is likely due to my having installed strawberry perl, but it not including necessary tools to build CPAN modules, thus, by default, it's using my 'cygwin' tool set that is designed to be incompatible with win32 pathnames (it knows about them and used to accept them, but now emits error messages, that can be disabled, but still no longer accepts them). I'm investigating replacements and will see if this solves the problem. Strong chance this will solve the problem. will Update with progress.
