I'm not a specialist on Windowz nor on Cigwin but aren't some libraries
different? I suspect that perl-interpreter/modules built on NT/W2K doesn't
always work correctly on W98. If this is true do I need to re-build perl? I
did this years ago under B20(?), it was pain but I was able to install LWP
afterwards.
Finally (may be) not related to LWP installation problem but is this
supposed to work this way?
