196	Configure failure in ActivePerl/MSVC	allison		"When attempting to compile Parrot using ActivePerl 5.10.0 and MSVC9 (2008 Express Edition), I get the following error in the configure process:

Does anyone with more experience on the Windows platform, and particularly on compiling with ActivePerl have a suggestion on possible cause/solution?
