Here are my test results for r12017 using Visual C++ 8.0 (Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition).

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\usr\bin\perl.exe' : return code '0xff' t/configure/step.t $fromfile and $tofile needs to be closed before calling move_if_diff, as Windows can't delete open files. t/doc/pod.t Haven't looked into this, but probably isn't platform specific. t/examples/streams.t Seems like \r\n vs \n issue # got: 'read:[ 1 =head1 INFORMATION\015] # read:[ 2 \015] ..... # expected: 'read:[ 1 =head1 INFORMATION] # read:[ 2 ] and # got: 'read:[=head1 INFORMATION\015\n\015\nThis small example shows the] # read:[ usage of C<Stream::ParrotIO>.\015\n\015\nIt reads this fi] ..... # expected: 'read:[=head1 INFORMATION\n\nThis small example shows the u] # read:[sage of C<Stream::ParrotIO>.\n\nIt reads this file w] t/pmc/env.t Probably the C env vs Windows env issue still. See http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.internals/32326 t/run/options.t My tempdir points to somewhere below "C:\Documents and Settings," which causes "$PARROT $first" to fail (Error reading source file C:\Documents.) Quoting $first and $second would resolve this. Or should I point my TMPDIR somewhere else? Ron
