attached is my lib/Parrot/Config.pm file generated from r11223, on
windows using msvc. inside you'll find a few things, like keys given
unix file path values,
'bin_dir' => '/usr/local/bin',

an invalid key,
'Parrot::Configure::Data=HASH(0x193a650)' => ' ',

and unexpanded values,
'libparrot' => '$(LIBPARROT_STATIC)',
'libparrot_ldflags' => '$(LIBPARROT_STATIC)',
'libparrot_shared' => 'libparrot$(SHARE_EXT)',

these should be fixed as appropriate.

I'll clean that up...

I believe those are only intended to be substituted into root.in and are
working as designed. The design could made a little cleaner thou...
any takers?
