Re: Windows VC6 build broken by Socket changes

Just for info on MinGW build -
To build Perl on Win XP, (or run on Win XP if built elsewhere) any gcc 
after 4.4.3 and not built from gcc 4.6.2 or greater needs to backport 
gcc rev 180422.

This and various issues around C++ exceptions (relevant for wxPerl) 
irritated me enough to build

http://sourceforge.net/projects/perlmingw/files/

This builds 5.14.2 OK (on WinXP) with a hack to install libstc++ 
alongside libgcc_* for the tests. Perl.exe links to libstdc++.

Hope it helps
