CHM/OpenGL- is disabled in win32 because it "Needs freeglut.dll". That is a general problem I see with making win32 versions of modules that require dependencies---how to get them on a platform without any form of package support. On the other hand, I just discovered that libblut-0_.dll is included in current versions of strawberry perl. I'll make sure it is picked up by the OpenGL probing if it is available. I don't think that FreeGLUT is available in ActiveState perl distributions. Any suggestions for CPAN Tester appropriate way to get and (temporarily) install library dependencies are welcome.
