Yes, depending on the module, a few or most of the test cases would
fail  for me when building any of the Gtk2-Perl modules under Windows.
 I stopped running 'make test' during builds because of it.

I would like to go back through and look at how many of the test cases
are failing, and why.  If anyone on the list is interested, I can post
here, or post offline, please let me know.  I may even try to fix them
:)

Thanks,
