Unfortunately, this means Perl modules that only come in native (XS) form don't compile because perl -V:cc says "gcc-4". I tried creating a symlink from gcc-4 -> gcc in /bin, but it didn't help.Yes, I've posted about this some time ago. You absolutely need to name the symlink "gcc-4.exe".
This is not my experience. My link is called 'gcc-4' pointing to 'gcc'; there is no '.exe' extension in either source or destination. This gets XS modules compiling for me.
