I dont have dmake.  Im not even sure where to get it.  But if I can find a
copy ill try it too.

of 5.7.[23] with DOT-NET)

I was able to build the 5.7 versions as well as 5.8 as well as the later
bleadperls using the normal build process. My trouble is getting the smoke
testing to work properly.  I guess that I need to do some coding to get the
current stuff to work with the MS based build process. Ill post what ive
done when I can.

However if anyone has already done this I appreciate them getting in touch,
this is one wheel I dont want to have to reinvent.
