I'd prefer that no version of Archive::Tar be specified
for Win32, or perhaps even no such prerequisite at all;
it's a core module in ActivePerl, and has a history
of some instability on Win32 - an upgrade may break
things on the local system.
I was trying to address this from Steven Hay's post:
>>- When I ran "perl Makefile.PL --with-apache2=C:/apache2" I got an
>>error from win32/Configure.pl about Archive-Tar being missing, but
>>this is not mentioned in the PREREQUISITES file and was not checked
by >>test_prereq in Makefile.PL before calling this script.
I'm fine with whatever you say is best... I'm not a MS guy.
I guess people on cygwin using the cygwin perl shouldn't be using the
win32/Configure.pl. (I don't think Steven is)
