Having been the principle cpan-tester on Windows (2003-2004), there were
many gotchas that CPAN authors fell foul of during the cpan-testing
process, once they had uploaded their distributions. Most gotchas dealt
with the prepare, build and test processes.

This talk lists a few of those gotchas, plus some quick examples of how
best to avoid them, to hopefully get authors proactively thinking about
cross-platform implementations.
