It's a 64bit linker, but your Strawberry installation is 32bit, this won't work (most likely gcc.exe and g++.exe invoked earlier in the build where 64bit non-Strawberry programs, too). Check the PATH in the shell where you try to build PAR::Packer: it should contain only Windows system directories and stuff below C:\Strawberry. This should get you past "dmake". Then "dmake test" will probably fail with dmake: Error: -- Don't know how to make `test_dynamic' dmake.exe: Error code 255, while making 'subdirs-test_dynamic' Known problem, see ticket 114229 for a temporary fix. I'm closing this ticket. Cheers, Roderich
