I noticed that, although the 'system' called hanged, the ftp server would
work, so since it looked like a bug in perl, I tried using the perl from
Cygwin, and it almost worked, it didn't care about the '2>/dev/null' but
I still had to use the installed 'curl.exe'.

The end result was:

TESTDONE: 143 tests out of 155 reported OK: 92%
TESTFAIL: These test cases failed: 29 63 500 501 502 503 504 505 506 507 508
510
TESTDONE: 168 tests were considered.
TESTINFO: 13 tests were skipped due to these restraints:
TESTINFO: "no HTTPS server" 8 times (300, 301, 302, 303, 304, 305, 306, 509)
TESTINFO: "curl lacks netrc_debug support" 5 times (130, 131, 132, 133, 134)

The libcurl tests all failed with signal 127, even though they seemed to work
from the command line.

So in conclussion:

    - On Windows cURL works a lot better than Perl.

    - I'd better leave this to someone who know about Perl on Windows.

I have attached the full output of the tests in case you want to see it.

Andres.
