Yes, you should. At least the latest releases of ActivePerl go to some effort to make sure that the generated Makefile is in dmake format when you are compiling with GCC. > Can I use MinGW with nmake by just replacing dmake with nmake? It would be better to figure out why dmake is not working in your setup. Maybe instead of running `dmake installdeps` you should install everything via the CPAN shell instead. Note that even core Perl requires you to use dmake.exe if you want to create a Windows build with GCC. The nmake Makefile only supports Visual Studio compilers.
