C:\Perl\bin>perl -MConfig -e "print $Config{ccflags}"

Commits

  1. MSVC: Test whether 32-bit Perl needs -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T.

  2. Further tweaks to compiler flags for PL/Perl on Windows.

  3. Absorb -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T switch from Perl, if relevant.

  4. PL/Perl portability fix: absorb relevant -D switches from Perl.

  5. PL/Perl portability fix: avoid including XSUB.h in plperl.c.
