 Hmm I had a url for this but I think we had trouble getting smpeg working on vista. kmx can best help you here.

I am sure Alien::SDL should compile this stuff for you. Did you try to cpan it an use the interactive menu to choose for smpeg?
Are you using cygwin, or dmake/strawberry perl, or activestate?

For smpeg on windows, again kmx is your best bet. i will cc his email. FROGGS may also be able to help.

Not sure have you seen the CHANGELOG that comes with SDL_image or gentoo/debian patches?
