Hi, OK, I just tried installing Alien::wxWidgets over ActivePerl 5.12.3 on a clean Windows XP SP2 virtual machine. The executable 'cc1.exe' is in C:\Perl\site\lib\auto\MinGW\libexec\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5. I added it to my PATH and tried it again. It croaked again since the include directory to wchar.h and other files are not set.
In my opinion, we should disable Alien::wxWidgets installation when ActivePerl is paired with mingw since it seems to *broken*. And the PPM package was last built on 2008 and is *not* available to ActivePerl 5.14.x. Thanks, Ahmad M.
