Hi,

The IPC::Cmd 0.72 that is bundled in Strawberry 5.14.2.1-32bits has a major
bug: it doesn't even compile. See RT#75033:
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=75033
This blocks the clean install of major modules such as CPAN::Reporter. The
user can of course upgrade the IPC::Cmd (if ever he understands the
problem), but this gives a bad experience for first time Perl users.

Would it be possible that a new patched version of Strawberry be released
that would just upgrade IPC::Cmd to 0.76?

Thanks,

Olivier.
