After updating to perl 5.8.6-1 I got an missing ntdll.dll export
error. Because I use Windows Me, I do not obviously have any
ntdll.dll. It seems the new perl was compiled for WindowsNT/2k/Xp only.
A bug in w32api?
No. It is the statically linked in Win32CORE extension.
The offending export is directly from perl.exe, it seems.
The error pop-up says the same story:
The PERL.EXE file is linked to missing export NTDLL.DLL:atoi
All I needed to trigger it was "perl -V".
Hmmm, atoi() is not available on Win98/ME? Strange.
