is your syntax right? here is the output:

$ perl -e 'use Fcntl qw(:fcntl)'
"fcntl" is not defined in %Fcntl::EXPORT_TAGS at -e line 1
        main::BEGIN() called at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/Carp.pm line 1
        eval {...} called at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/Carp.pm line 1
Can't continue after import errors at -e line 1
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.

Oh nooooo.... i was starting to get good at using this cygwin. To reiterate: 

- this was working two weeks ago. Is there a way to back down pull a different version of cygwin?
- Is this a cygwin problem?
- Is this a perl problem?
