Sorry that this bug report got missed until now.

I don't know very much about Win32, and don't have access to a Win32
system. The bug is in code I'd inherited from Devel::Size 0.72, which
was (as far as I know) developed on Win32 systems, so I infer *used* to
work. (And I think CPAN testers reports on earlier versions showed that
it used to build).
However, I've now been supplied with a fix, and uploaded a development
release, 0.77_51, to CPAN, so that the Win32 cpan testers can test it
for me. Does the development release, Devel::Size 0.77_51 fix this for
you?
