NAME
       ExtUtils::MM_Win95 - method to customize MakeMaker for
       Win9X

SYNOPSIS
         You should not be using this module directly.

DESCRIPTION
       This is a subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Win32 containing
       changes necessary to get MakeMaker playing nice with
       command.com and other Win9Xisms.

   Overridden methods
       Most of these make up for limitations in the Win9x/nmake
       command shell.  Mostly its lack of &&.

       xs_c
           The && problem.

       xs_cpp
           The && problem

       xs_o
           The && problem.

       max_exec_len
           Win98 chokes on things like Encode if we set the max
           length to nmake's max of 2K.  So we go for a more
           conservative value of 1K.

       os_flavor
           Win95 and Win98 and WinME are collectively Win9x and
           Win32
