AW: [openssl.org #2805] uplink-x86_64-pl-script error when running "ms\do_win64a" on windows 7-64bit command line

Thank you for your quick response.

> how come it's not required in all other perlasm modules? 
errors do also occure in other perlasm modules, but i'am running this configure command without asm support
which avoids calling other perlasm modules?

perl Configure debug-VC-WIN64A no-asm --prefix=x64/debug

I have two perl.exe from msys and git in my path. I have already tried it only with strawberry perl, but the
same error occured.

My batch job does the following:

...
perl Configure debug-VC-WIN64A no-asm --prefix=x64/debug
call "C:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
call "ms\do_win64a"

nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak install
...

Sources are always unpacked with "tar zvxf openssl-1.0.1b.tar.gz", no 7-zip was used.

There was also a patch done to mk1mf.pl in line 330

Before
($key,$val)=/^([^=]+)=(.*)/;

I added this one (problem description and workaround found in a forum)
s/\r$//; #remove carriage return too!

Because calling 

call "ms\do_win64a"

also produces this error:

D:\Projects\build\src\openssl\_orig_≥perl util\mk1mf.pl dll VC-WIN64A  1>ms\ntdll.mak
no rule for crypto\md4 at util\mk1mf.pl line 967.

This is apparently a known problem on executing on windows platforms?

Regards

I can't reproduce this, not with ActivePerl. I read "then is does work"
as "following compilation succeeds". But in such case, if the change is required in uplink-x86_64.pl, how
come it's not required in all other perlasm modules? Indeed, the pattern '$0 =~ m/(.*[\/\\])[^\/\\]+$/;
$dir=$1; open STDOUT "| $^X ${dir}../etc"' is found in *all* perlasm modules. Note that regular
expression is composed to leave last delimiting / or \, whichever is current, so that 'ms' shouldn't happen...
