All of them are against 1.01_03, not incremental. To make it easier.

Thanks, no help needed :)
I'm administrator of phpwiki at sf.net and maintainer of several
cygwin projects. If you have questions maybe I can help out :)

I'll ask Aldo then. Also for several Win32::API gcc patches needed.
I took over C::DynaLib recently and want to add gcc support (cygwin + 
mingw) for Win32::API. C::DynaLib callbacks at least works fine for 
Win32, in contrary to Win32::API.
