Improving this error message a bit looks like a good idea to me.
Looking at the code to figure out what build.pl is looking for is a
bit a pain for users just willing to compile the code, so if we can
avoid such lookups with a cheap way, let's do it.
Instead of your patch, I'd suggest saving $solution->{options}->{perl}
. '\lib\CORE\perl*.lib' in a variable and then raise an error based on
that. See attached.
