1. The 'make test' failures were in t/external/08_external.t
The server at www.cdw.com does not set the SERVER header, and therfore the 
test was incorrectly reported as failing. Committed a fixed version of 
08_exernal.t that looks for CONTENT-TYPE

There are still a number of tets that are skipped on my Linux platform:
t/local/01_pod...................skipped
        all skipped: Test::Pod 1.00 required for testing POD
t/local/02_pod_coverage..........skipped
        all skipped: currently disabled
t/local/kwalitee.................skipped
        all skipped: Needs Test::Kwalitee


2. Makefile.PL requires Test::NoWarnings, which is not part of the standard 
ActiveState ActivePerl 5.8 distro on Windows. 
This results in a report of Test::NoWarnings being mssing during 'perl 
Makefile.PL'
It is available for install from PPM, but I wonder if we really need to add 
this new external dependency, which will surely confound some people ?

3. There is something wrong with the MakeMaker behaviour under Windows. In 
inc/Module/Install/PRIVATE/Net/SSLeay.pm, function find_openssl_prefix() the 
guesses list uis wrong, and should have:
            'C:\OpenSSL\bin\openssl.exe'     => 'C:\OpenSSL',
but even after fixing this, the resulting Makefile has the correct Windows INC 
but incorrect LDLOADLIBS. The right args seem to be passsed to MakeMaker, 
like this:

#   MakeMaker Parameters: 
 #     ABSTRACT => q[Perl extension for using OpenSSL] 
#     AUTHOR => q[Maintained by Mike McCauley and Florian Ragwitz since 
November 2005] 
#     CCCDLFLAGS => q[] 
#     DIR => [] 
#     DISTNAME => q[Net-SSLeay] 
#     INC => q[-IC:\OpenSSL/include -IC:\OpenSSL/inc32 -Iusr/kerberos/include] 
#     LIBS => q[-LC:\OpenSSL -LC:\OpenSSL/lib -LC:\OpenSSL/out32dll -LC:
\OpenSSL/lib/VC -llibeay32 -lssleay32] 

which looks OK, but the Makefile has 

LDLOADLIBS = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib\oldnames.lib" 
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib\kernel32.lib" "C:\Program 
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib\user32.lib" "C:\Program 
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\lib\gdi32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft 
Visual Studio\VC98\lib\winspool.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\comdlg32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\advapi32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\shell32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\ole32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\oleaut32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\netapi32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\uuid.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\ws2_32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\mpr.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\winmm.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\version.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\odbc32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\odbccp32.lib" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\VC98\lib\msvcrt.lib" 

ie it looks like LDLOADLIBS does not get the contents of LIBS for windows. 
Florian, is the right version of all the stuff in inc correct? Im pretty sure 
this used to work.
