No.  The par contains a manifest.

  unzip foo.exe MANIFEST

I've just run into this C: problem myself.  It appears that the problem 
may have been created by AutoLoader.

  bash-3.1$ perl -e '
    use Compress::Zlib;
    print join("\n", map({"$_ => $INC{$_}"} keys %INC), "")
  ' | grep -i '^c:'
  c:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Compress/Zlib/autosplit.ix =>   
    c:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Compress/Zlib/autosplit.ix

I believe this is the essential issue here (though I can't see how your 
hello world app managed to autoload anything.)  Basically, qdos is a 
poorly designed operating system requiring programmers to jump through 
many hoops due to things like case-insensitive filesystems, using 
escape characters for directory separators, etc (such as the lack of 
an /etc dir.)  Enough ranting, now I'll go write some special case 
munging into Module::ScanDeps::_make_rv while I drink large quantities 
of alchohol and wonder to which country I should move if enough people 
will really be stupid enough to vote gates for president.  Windows is 
evil.  Tell your friends.
