The tests assume a Unix environment and run diff and sometimes perl. Thus the error about diff not found. They may work with cygwin if it provides diff. I don't run windows and so can't test, but I'm happy to take patches to support windows. If not, I can mark that platform as not supported. If you're a windows user, please let me know what you recommend.

Tests hang even if diff is installed so I propose to print some message like "Currently not supported, patched welcome" and die. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

It seems like they don't hang for all versions of Windows (see http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/F/Fsdb.html?version=2.37 ), and the tests passed under windows in older versions of Fsdb. But I guess I can blacklist windows at configure time. (Too bad, I would love help with the port, but I need a windows developer.)
