Yea! I am hoping that you get farther along that I did before I gave up.

make -n will print out the commands but may choke on some of our processing.
Still it is a good start at determing the command line being executed.
I believe that the problem you are having with Perl\lib is how you defined
EXTRA_LIBS. In the win32.mk under platform for the AR command we go through
one more level of tranlation. I think this is the one that is bitting you.
Make sure thae libs that Perl gives is translated similiar to that in the
exisitng libraries. Then this final translation will work for you.

No rush on this one, but send that patch to me when/if you get it working or
even close and one a fresh set of eyes to review. I am more than
interested.
