Hi everybory,
Endvironment:
OS: Win7 Pro 64-bit (irrelevant I presume, just in case)

I have:
1. Unpacked zip file into, saying, C:\myperl
2. Set env vars due to README.portable.txt
3. Started to install my favourite modules:

cpan>
=================
(I have broken command line and deleted repetative lines above for
better readability).
Oops... But OK, seems to me the linker couldn't find some symbols due to
one or more library missing in command line. But which one? Because of
lack of tool like Linux' 'nm' (*) I used Agent Ransack which found those
symbols in libperl514.a only. But of course it couldn't say whether the
library *defines* or *requires* those symbols. I do not know much about
mangled external symbols in Windows lib's with dynamic linking used, but
symbols '_imp__*' and other missing are present in perl\bin\perl514.dll
(and many others dll's but I guess it may be perl514.dll which provides
those symbols).
*******************
So question is:
*******************
Which library supplies missing symbols listed above?
Is it perl514.dll?
If so, how to make linker to see the library?
or
Which (config?) file(s) I must modify to make the problem extinct
permanently?
Is it perl/lib/Config_heavy.pl?
Which line(s) must I edit?
(*) is any similar tool to nm which recognizes format of *.a files on
Wins (made by mingw I think)? Cygwin's nm (2.22) doesn't, Linux' nm
(2.17) either, as one may expect...
Any help will be appreciated.
