Thanks. Hmm. http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/98294
points out a similar problem, and the article referenced from there
has http://perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=274055 which provides some
ideas, too. Hm, I think this is a bug in math.h, the line is
template<class _Ty> inline
while in VC++ 7.1 it got replaced by
extern "C++" {
template<class _Ty> inline
...
Hmm, I would suspect (I am afraid I cannot test it, I don't have
sufficient free disc space to install VC++ 6.0...) that adding
// woraround for broken math.h in VC++ 6.0
#if defined(_MSC_VER) && _MSC_VER < 1300
#include <math.h>
#endif
prior to the extern "C" ... includes would work around this. If
I change my math.h to match yours in this regard I can reproduce
this problem and adding the include (without the _MSC_VER check)
solves it, so maybe you could apply the following patch and try
again?

It should solve at least the C2894 problem. Oh, and yes, the module is
not yet ready for a CPAN release, the typemap in particular needs some
attention...
