Unfortunately I have no Win98 to do this myself. Ok, a debugging version is here (two packages, 8MB sourcetree and 10MB binaries): http://koeln.convey.de/cywgin/perl/perl-5.8.0-debugging.tar.bz2 http://koeln.convey.de/cywgin/perl/perl-5.8.0-debugging-srctree.tar.bz2 http://koeln.convey.de/cywgin/perl/md5sums And a source package with the additional patches and scripts to build a debugging version: perl-5.8.0-debugging-src.tar.bz2, is available on request.
