Sorry? I don't think GS perl came with more modules than ActivePerl.
And you may install modules both from PPM and from CPAN as you did
with the GS perl.

Being standard doesn't mean that it has to contain everything.

You're right. It's not.
It is available via PPM from http://Jenda.McCann.cz

Could you explain to me in plain words what did the GS perl have that
ActivePerl does not?

P.S.: To the failed instalation, I bet you do not have proper path to
your C libraries. Open ...\perl\lib\Config.pm and search for
"libpth=". Then put there the path to the .lib files of your
compiler.
