Problem compiling perl module Term::ReadKey under cygwin


I'm getting some compilation errors when trying to install some perl
modules using cpan in cygwin 1.0 with the net updates.  I'm running
Windows NT 4.0 SP6a.

One error has to do with sgtty.  Ken, do you know if that's a problem?
Does Term::ReadKey require sgtty?
I believe Chris Faylor @ Red Hat said there's no support for sgtty in
cygwin, and no plans for support.

I installed Charles Wilson's Perl for Cygwin 1.0 (I have the CD.) on
Windows NT 4.0 SP6a.
Charles, is there a known problem with the cpan updates or the
Term::ReadKey module using your perl?

Mumit, I've searched the cygwin archives for a solution to the collect2
problem, and it isn't clear what the status is for this bug.

Any idea what's wrong?  I tried installing ld.exe as collect-ld.exe in
the directory with cc1.exe

Help!

Here's the transcript:
% gcc --version
2.95.2
% cpan_update
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.54)
ReadLine support enabled

Can't ioctl TIOCGETP: Invalid argument
Consider installing Term::ReadKey from CPAN site nearby
        at http://www.perl.com/CPAN
Or use
        perl -MCPAN -e shell
to reach CPAN. Falling back to 'stty'.
        If you do not want to see this warning, set PERL_READLINE_NOWARN

in your environment.
