For what it's worth: I've been building OpenSSL releases on Windows
for many years without problems, and I've only ever used Strawberry
Perl. I don't think the problem applies to official release
tarballs.<br>

<pre wrap="">It is well known issue with build on Windows: It requires ActivePerl to
correctly create configuration.
Every other Perl implementation fails to execute correctly. The reason it
fails outlined in this report: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/174">https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/174</a>
Although it is stated that only cloned code exhibits this behavior I believe
it also happens when Git or Strawberry Perl is being used for build of
official releases.
As suggested in the comments adding $/= "\r\n"; line to Perl script fixes this
issue for every other Perl implementation.
I've successfully built openssl with Perl distributed with Git as well as
Strawberry Perl.
