I can't even get this far.

dmake was complaining with Glib-1.140 that it couldn't find closing "'" until I removed them all (and then 
where necessary escaped the " that were enclosed).

I then had to remove the copyright notice making build/podindex because otherwise the line was too long.

Now I get:

C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -I blib\lib -I blib\arch -MGlib::GenPod -MGlib -e "add_types (\"doctypes\");  
$Glib::GenPod::MAIN_MOD=\"Glib\";  xsdoc2pod(\"build/doc.pl\", \"blib\lib\", \"build/podindex\");"
loaded 8 extra types from doctypes
Magic number checking on storable file failed at ..\..\lib\Storable.pm (autosplit into 
..\..\lib\auto\Storable\fd_retrieve.al) line 349, at build/doc.pl line 22

Compilation failed in require at blib\lib/Glib/GenPod.pm line 217.
dmake.exe:  Error code 9, while making 'build/podindex'

I've got ActivePerl 5.8.8.819.

Any ideas?
