ExtUtils::MM_Win95 - method to customize MakeMaker for Win9X
You should not be using this module directly.
This is a subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Win32 containing changes necessary to get MakeMaker playing nice with command.com and other Win9Xisms.
Most of these make up for limitations in the Win9x command shell. Namely the lack of && and that a chdir is global, so you have to chdir back at the end.
&& and chdir problem.
Also, dmake has an odd way of making a command series silent.
The && problem.
The && problem
Win98 chokes on things like Encode if we set the max length to nmake's max of 2K. So we go for a more conservative value of 1K.
Win95 and Win98 and WinME are collectively Win9x and Win32
