Which of these three?
Win32::API callbacks will need some time.
Use the two other, better perl FFI's instead (FFI, C::Dynalib)

For Win32::OLE there was a patch somewhere which I didn't apply nor 
tested yet.

Win32::ODBC and the rest of the libwin32 suite works ok.
Win32::GUI also.
Maybe a seperate perl-tk package will be appreciated also, now that I 
heard that it works after applying some known patches.

Should I publish the 5.8.5 package or wait for 5.8.6?
I'm quite busy with postgresql and phpwiki now.
