What kind of setup is this? Are you to trying to build perl for a Linux target using a Windows build host?
No idea, I can't reproduce it right away, it seems to be either MSVS libc or Windows specific.
Which is really borderline for perl-cross since it's not really meant for anything other than Linux-Linux builds.
If you can, try building perl natively, using mainline Configure, and compare config.sh from that build to the one perl-cross generates. Chances are some printf-related values are off. Or maybe something FP-related. But I think it's probably printf. If so, it should be hinted most likely.
this is not cross raised another ticket in perl section
