Anyone got 5.8.5 running on Windows?

This is a bit of a long shot. We have a test failure for TAP::Parser 0.51 on Windows:

http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2007/03/msg437065.html

It's Perl 5.8.5 and to this (untutored) eye it looks as if it's not ActiveState's build. I've tried to build 5.8.5 here but can't get it to play nice with VC++ 8.0.

If anyone might happen to have 5.8.5 installed on a Windows box and could make test against both T::P 0.51 and a snapshot from the SVN and report back I'd be most grateful.

FWIW the tests all pass on Windows/5.8.8.

It's Corion. You can find him almost daily on Perlmonks — try the Chatterbox.

Splendid, thanks. I've mailed him.
