Correct: the current activestate PPM package is 0.39.

OK, progress, but then another block:

after unpacking the new dist in Windows, 

R:\net-ssleay\trunk\Net-SSLeay-1.30>perl Makefile.PL
Cannot determine perl version info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
Cannot determine license info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
*** OpenSSL version test failed
    (`' has been returned)
    Either you have bogus OpenSSL or a new version has changed the version
    number format. Please inform the authors!

and before *** openSSL version test failed ....
is printed, get a popup that says:

The ordinal 3288 could not be found in the dynamic link library LIBEAY.DLL

Maybe check_openssl_version in ext/Module/Install/PRIVATE/Net/SSLeay.pm does 
not handle Windows properly?

Im using the Shining Light openssl libraries
