You'll have to look at the individual tester reports to figure that out. The MSWin32 reports can be any of ActivePerl, StrawberryPerl or a version of Perl compiled by the user locally. Generally it shouldn't really matter. Any differences in the success of compiling a module with any of the MSWin32 Perl version will be more due to differences in compiler and library setup then in the Perl itself. For example some modules may only compile if you use a recent Windows Platform SDK in addition to the header files and libraries bundled with your compiler. Cheers, -Jan
