Tk 804.029 is currently not building out of the box for us on Windows (it is working on Linux). You can see our failing build log at (scroll to the end for error): http://ppm4.activestate.com/MSWin32-x86/5.12/1200/S/SR/SREZIC/Tk-804.029.d/log-20100527T210152.txt and it appears other testers are having issues: http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Tk+804.029 The log indicates it is in tkGlue.c, a mismatch to core regexp structures. Probably something that changed for 5.12. We'll look at this again to see if it just needs some simple prodding. Note that you will find Tkx with ActivePerl 5.12. It uses the Tcl-only binding to provide Tk functionality, though with a slightly different syntax. There was an effort underway to provide a Perl/Tk compatible syntax layer, though I'm not sure of the status of that.
