So right now we have the worst possible situation, with Unix and Windows
doing completely different things with the Perl bindings. Hm.
I see Unix uses the Perl infrastructure (Makfile.PL, and such) for
building and installing the bindings. I suggest Windows should do the
same, because Perl _does_ support building on Windws using the same
mechanism.
Can we work on making it so?
