As to Win32::Shortcut: you should just delete the END block from the module. I see that Sarathy already did this over a year for the version that ships with ActivePerl. He also gave me his mailbox with accumulated libwin32 patches and asked me to put out another libwin32 release to CPAN. Unfortunately I haven't found time to get around to it yet. The other issue you are seeing is that CoInitialize() needs to be called in each *thread* that wants to make COM calls. To do this properly, the module needs to provide a CLONE method if you are using Perl threads in 5.8.x. I have no clue how all this relates to MP1; it is just the subject line that made me take a brief peek at this message.
