I have a Moose package built for Perl 5.10.0 on Win32 in my distro,
called Camelbox, so I know it's possible to run Moose on Windows.
Camelbox homepage here:

http://code.google.com/p/camelbox/

Moose should also build on Strawberry Perl
(http://strawberryperl.com/).  Both distros use MinGW (GCC) and dmake
for building modules (including compiling XS code).

The Activestate package build status page lists the last build test of
Moose as version 0.38, and that it failed to build.

The ActiveState FAQ describes how to compile source for modules
downloaded from CPAN on ActiveState, but I've not verified they work
(Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of Camelbox). The instructions are
here:
