Actually, I take the last sentence back.  According to "CPAN testers",
Spreadsheet-WriteExcel works just fine on Cygwin (or at least passes the
complete testsuite).  BTW, the CPAN.org page for the bundle also contains
very detailed installation instructions (see
<http://search.cpan.org/src/JMCNAMARA/Spreadsheet-WriteExcel-2.14/doc/install.html>).
