msys2 and cygwin currently patching perl quite a bit. We would like to upstream those patches for a better out-of-the-box experience with perl. For that purpose we opened two merge requests 12. We don't fully understand all of the patches though, so some feedback would be most welcome.
Note that we generally don't accept patches against cpan/, those should be submitted to those module's own upstream. I would strongly urge you to do that anyway (and dist/ as well), because otherwise an upgrade of any such module will overwrite your modifications.
