Done and fixed (it was a different cause):

	- Fix linking problems on Windows. Tested with VC++ 6.0, Shining Light
	0.9.7L on Windows Server 2003 with ActivePerl 5.8.8.820. Also tested
	with OpenSSL 0.9.8e compiled from source.
	- Unable to get working systems when compiling with MS Visual Studio
	Express 2005. Contributions requested. This may be relevant:
	  http://www.itwriting.com/blog/?postid=261&replyto=2542
	- Fixed a number of minor compile warnings on Windows
	- Updated README.Win32 to define building procedures on Windows
	- Fixed incorrect test failure reports in 08_external.
	- Add parens to function calls in Makefile.PL to prevent
	warnings with some perls.
	- Tested on Sparc Solaris 8, Sparc Solaris 10, OpenSuSE 10.2 x64,
	OpenSuSE 10.0 x86, FreeBSD 6.0 x86, Ubuntu 6.10, Fedora Core 6 x86
	- Changed type of SSL_set_info_callback args to stop compiler warnings
	on Windows

Done. Tests OK here.

I note that svn does not seem to include MANIFEST or the inc tree. Is that 
your intention? It means I cant build a tarball here.
