yes. I am currently building a solution to generate periodically a cygperl distrib with **a lot** of extra modules and I came across this problem which breaks badly (sadly) the CPAN toolchain.

  • it seems windows is using some kind of cache and even if the perl executable does an unload-reload of a given dll (using I guess the one in the local install dir), windows gives an error or maybe the unload mechanism does not work on cygwin...(or windows)
  • one fix is check blib for *dll and move the dll to .RM and generate a (rm) script to run at exit
  • a better one would be to fix EU::MM for cygwin, or replace the equivalent to the "install" cmd with a smarter equivalent
