Not sure about Python but in the case oer Perl the bindings must be
built against a binary compatable version of Perl. Which generally
means the exact version you're running against. Given that Windows
doesn't ship with Perl, I have no idea how we could ever ship a set of
Perl bindings without shipping a copy of Perl. Which is never going to
happen.
