For what it's worth: I've been building OpenSSL releases on Windows for many years without problems, and I've only ever used Strawberry Perl. I don't think the problem applies to official release tarballs.

It is well known issue with build on Windows: It requires ActivePerl to
correctly create configuration.
Every other Perl implementation fails to execute correctly. The reason it
fails outlined in this report: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/174
Although it is stated that only cloned code exhibits this behavior I believe
it also happens when Git or Strawberry Perl is being used for build of
official releases.

As suggested in the comments adding $/= "\r\n"; line to Perl script fixes this
issue for every other Perl implementation.
I've successfully built openssl with Perl distributed with Git as well as
Strawberry Perl.
