That's correct. I've cleaned up my build directory. I did try it from my
build directory before, though, and there were no ???.

I make two packages, one for 5.10 and one for 5.14. There's a separate
patch that's required for 5.14. Did you include it? The source package
for -4 includes it automatically.

The perl bindings work for me on Win7/64 using 5.10. I use them every day.

There was a problem with the openldap-devel package at one point; it was
missing lots of things. I had to reinstall it to get the libraries.

Thanks, I'll add that to the .cygport file.

The tests work for me, but I've never been able to get them to work
without first installing the newly built packages. The last time I did
this, I did:

 1. Do "cygport *.cygport almostall"
 2. Install the packages.
 3. Rebase the dll and so files in */build and */inst
 4. Do "cygport *.cygport check"

All the tests passed except for a Ruby test (it appeared the output came
in a different order than expected) and a few Perl tests (it couldn't
delete a temporary directory).
