I was able to get libwin32-0.191 to build with the latest Cygwin + gcc +
perl 5.8.5, using the patch cited above plus a couple of fixes of my
own, which I've attached. The resulting build did not pass all the
tests, but it works well enough to get me back in business wrt using
Win32::OLE in various perl scripts.

I hope this helps.
