GMP Module (perl)

[Sisyphus]

Hi,

The GMP-4.1.2 distro contains source code for building the GMP perl module
(in the demos\perl\folder).

Looks interesting - far more extensive than Math::GMP which is currently on
cpan.

Has anyone built this module on Win32 ? I get a long list of errors (see
below - I've included *all* of the errors, but you'll get the idea after the
first few lines).

I have perl 5.6.1, built with gcc-2.95.2 and dmake. (I'm trying to build it
in the cmd.exe shell, but I don't think it's a shell issue anyway.)
Any advice on how to amend GMP.xs would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Rob
