I encountered the same thing

I got excited there for a moment, thinking that you had encountered the same problem as the OP ;-)
But, after further consideration, I realized you had probably merely encountered the same problem as I did.

That problem (ie ours, not the OP's) turns out to be fairly simple to resolve.
In HiRes.xs at lines 142 and 143 we have:

/* Visual C++ 2013 and older don't have the timespec structure */
#  if defined(MSC_VER) && _MSC_VER < 1900
[download]

Turns out that gcc-3.4.5 also doesn't have the timespec structure, so I just changed line 143 to:

#  if defined(_WIN32)
[download]

which is not a portable solution, but is good enough to get the job done if the version of gcc is 3.4.5.
The portable solution would be:

Updated (ie checked and corrected):
#if (defined(MSC_VER) && _MSC_VER < 1900) || (defined(__MINGW32__) && 
+__GNUC__ < 4)
[download]

Anyway, List::MoreUtils::XS-0.428 builds and tests fine on my gcc-3.4.5 built perl-5.32.0.
At least I now have a functional gcc-3.4.5 build of perl-5.32.0.
Imagine how useful that will be !! (Not very..)

BTW, this gcc-3.4.5 build of perl-5.32.0 tested fairly well (IMO).
The cpan/IO-Compress/t/105oneshot-gzip.t script hangs and has to be slaughtered - but then the same thing happens for me with 64-bit gcc-8.3.0 builds of perl, too.

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
