Apologies, you were right. I modified C:\Perl\lib\File\Spec\Win32.pm and 
the problem does indeed go away.

I have File::Spec at both locations and according to "perl -V" 
(ActivePerl 5.8.7.813), my @INC is

C:\Perl\lib
C:\Perl\site\lib
.

So by default PPM does not upgrade "core" modules like File::Spec 
because it installs to site\lib, which I hadn't realised. IMO it would 
make a lot more sense if ActiveState did things the same way as FreeBSD 
5.4, which puts site_perl ahead of lib. But there we go.
