This might be the last beta before perl5.6 is released, so please bang on it if you've the inclination. I've found one problem already that I couldn't figure out: attempting to execute any routine from the libnet module causes perl to dump core immediately. If anybody's got any ideas about how to fix that, please let me know. perl5.5.660 was built using the following external libraries from the cygutils archive: libcrypt cygipc-1.05 db-2.7.7 gdbm-1.8.0-1 and with the following environment settings. ntsec was not enabled.
