I have tried to install DBD::Pg v2.0.0 into Strawberry Perl v5.10.0 under
Windows XP without success.  From the notes in the file "README.win32" it
seems that everything is set up for Microsoft tools rather than MinGW.
Unfortunately I do not have enough understanding of the installation process
to work how it should be done with the utilities provided by Strawberry Perl
(dmake, gcc etc).  I already have DBI v1.602 installed.
The output from the CPAN client provided in my Strawberry Perl installation
is as follows:

CPAN: File::HomeDir loaded ok (v0.67)

cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9205)
ReadLine support enabled

Any help would be much appreciated.
