Re: Are there windows binaries for 5.20?

Hi.

Never mind all the stuff below (although it may end up helping another compiler-dummy like 
me). I now got the reason : on my laptop (and also on the other Windows machine) the 
version of Strawberry Perl was 5.18.4.1 32-bit, but it was /not/ the "no-64-bit-ints" 
specific version found here :
http://strawberryperl.com/releases.html
section : "5.18.4.1 / 32bit - without USE_64_BIT_INT"

Once I corrected that (and re-installed the rest as per below), the error went away.

Many, many thanks for the binaries, and sorry for the noise.
