Hello,
I am using a Perl that's been ported to Cygwin, I am sure I remember that
the prebuilt Win32 (Cygwin) binary i installed was pointed-to from
Cygwin's site or an associated site list of port projects. sorry don't have the
specific URL.
In this Perl, the -w (writable yes|no) file test operator is broken -- it always
returns null on any file. [As a consequence I cannot run the important Perl
module CPAN.pm to extend Perl conveniently). I am running NT4 sp6.
If anyone knows anything about this I'd appreciate hearing from them.
