The Makefile.PL creates a folder ./.testlink and then does some
"conftest" stuff in there.

The nmake children of the Makefile.PL spend a lot of time searching for
some "rem" all over the PATH. Does anyone know what this "rem" is? It
doesn't seem to originate with the Makefile.PL.

Likewise, it searches for "link" (the linker) and "cl" (the compiler),
which it has no trouble to find.

Alright, I noticed that on the computer I'm testing on right now I
accidentally used a 64-bit Perl from ActiveState. Using the 32-bit
Perl from ActiveState, it works just fine:

C:\TEMP\XML-LibXML-1.70 :: C:\Opt\Perl512.32\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL
enable native perl UTF8
looking for -lxml2... yes
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for XML::LibXML

I will retry the ProcMon approach on the other computer tomorrow.
