ActiveState's ppm allows other repositories to draw on as well as their own. Try them. Your environment has problems with mingw? Sounds like a sign of something else wrong--- check into it. Perhaps your attitude about windows is blinding you to existing solutions? There is a free version of Microsoft C++ you might look at. Keep in mind that even if the compiler issue goes away, things are not necessarily even between 'nix and Windows. There are modules that just won't work on windows (I don't know about the other way around...) The bigger the app, the more the modules the larger you problem space is going to be.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
