Compile time error when trying to build on win32

[Michael Yin]

So I'm trying to build pidgin on Windows using the instructions on
http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/BuildingWinPidgin.

while in the directory
PIDGIN_DEV\pidgin-mtn\libpurple\plugins\perl\common, it comes up with
the following error,

Account.c: In function `boot_Purple__Account':
Account.c:1430: error: `PL_unitcheckav' undeclared (first use in this
function)

I was using the manual instructions, then tried with the BEF which ended
giving me the same error.

Any thoughts?

It turns out that pidgin doesn't compile with Perl 5.10.
