I'm watching p5p to see what happens. The discussion about the dot in
@INC is still raging, I'm not sure what the outcome will be.
The other more immediately worrisome discussion is about fatalization of
unescaped brackets in regex (which is currently giving a deprecated
warning). This would break all versions of autoconf we currently have
in Cygwin, so that would be a complete no-go unless Yaakov was willing
to point-patch it.

Achim.
