Ok, I finally had a chance to look into this one. Finding the problem
was easy, but I don't know the proper solution. The problem seems to be
that Module::Build call cwd() with the object syntax which passes self
as an argument. In the perl sources (cygwin/cygwin.c), the builtin cwd
does this check:
if(items != 0)
Perl_croak(aTHX_ "Usage: Cwd::cwd()");
and fails on Cygwin because apparently Cygwin is the only OS that
performs this check. What is the proper way to fix this? Is there a way
Module::Build could work around this problem?
