I don't think so but I cannot be sure since i can't test, so all I can say is try it out.

I'd test, but I cannot build perl-5.8.x on win32 without threads (nobody seems to be smoking that config on win32) which reminds me we need more smoke testers for windows. Grab Test::Smoke and go wild. We can always use more smoke testers.

MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"

I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
