[Module-build-general] Compiling better but still unwell on Cygwin

[Michael G S. <sc...@po...>]

Trying the CVS snapshot on Cygwin, we get up to linking and then things go
wrong.  $Config{ld} is ld2 which calls perlld which calls dllwrap which
does the actual linking.  dllwrap is complaining.  Here's part of the xs.t
output.

ok 3
lib/XSTest.pm -> blib/lib/XSTest.pm
gcc -c -DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -Iusr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin-multi/CORE -o lib/XSTest.o lib/XSTest.c
lib/XSTest.bs -> blib/arch/auto/XSTest/XSTest.bs
env LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin-multi/CORE ld2 -s -L/usr/local/lib -o blib/arch/auto/XSTest.dll lib/XSTest.o
dllwrap --dllname XSTest.dll --driver-name gcc --dlltool ddlltool --export-all-symbols --as as --output-def libXSTest.def --output-lib lbXSTest.a \
-s -L/usr/local/lib lib/XSTest.o
dllwrap: no export definition file provided.
Creating one, but that may not be what you want
lib/XSTest.o(.tet+0x2d):XSTest.c: undefined reference to '_Perl_Gcurinterp_ptr' 
...etc...

Not sure what dllwrap is yelling about.  There's no man page.
