The offending line in win32.h is: extern int my_fstat(int fd, Stat_t *sbufptr);

-- ParBohrarper - 14 Jan 2008

By editing Makefile.PL to this:

# Makefile for NativeTWikiSearch? module use ExtUtils? ::MakeMaker; WriteMakefile? ( NAME => 'NativeTWikiSearch', OBJECT => 'NativeTWikiSearch.o cgrep.o', LIBS => [ '-lpcre' ], # CCFLAGS => "-g", # LD => "gcc", # OBJ_EXT => ".o", # LDFROM => '$(OBJECT) -lpcre', );

it compiles, but i still get the "Free to wrong pool" errors i got before on NativeSearch? ...
