It's working! (Score:1)
It's a little touchy, but it does work using perl 5.10.1 (haven't tried 5.8.9 yet). Getting some warnings about missing DLLs during the test phase, primarily expat or libxml-related (not sure why).
Also getting tons of 'Subroutine X redefined' warnings, which are pretty harmless but it would be nice to track down why they're popping up. These also occur when testing BioPerl with ActivePerl.

I think I know why the "missing DLL's" message pops up... Sometimes the Strawberry installer needs a log-out/log-back-in (a reboot works just as well) to register the path entries it adds to the environment - which it needs to find the dll's. I don't know how to determine when it happens, I just know that it happens.
I noticed the "Subroutine redefined" errors, too. :)
The new Strawberry Perl for Windows has been released! Check http://strawberryperl.com for it.

Okay, good. May be worth a retry then.

This also pops up via one of the CPAN Tester reports [perl.org]
