Looks like a failing rebase on an incredibly low address 0xa70000.
Try rebaseall.

And then maybe a
$ perlrebase 5.6.2
But it rather looks like a system dll. libz.dll maybe.
Note: The argument 5.6.2 to find your right executable suffix

From my experience only lib/File/Find.pm from a newer perl is required (I
took 5.8.1), otherwise you not be able to installe other modules
because the are not found.

I usually install old stuff with App::perlall and/or Devel::PatchPerl
