But making EU::MM::Install work regardless of this happening is important too.

So the attached patch doesn't invoke the special behaviour if
Win32API::File is missing.

Thanks, applied as change #27016 to bleadperl.

So, does this mean that someone with this EU::MM::Install would be able to upgrade Cwd on windows now? I admit my tiny brain hasn't been able to follow this thread one bit.

Yes. It works now, with much thanks to Yves and Linda.

If the answer is yes, could we get this into EU::MM standalone release too?

Better would be for someone to take over EU::Install which is what Schwern wanted to happen, and release it standalone. The current version of MakeMaker is already setup for this scenario:

 svn co http://svn.schwern.org/svn/CPAN/ExtUtils-MakeMaker/trunk

EU::Install is "bundled" as inc/ExtUtils/Install.pm

The patch does apply cleanly to the version in svn, and tests ok.

Randy.
