Ideas?

It can take a few minutes to run through the test suite, but 30 minutes is a bit extreme.

I see you've got a 32-bit build of Strawberry Perl. That's a little uncommon these days, but should not be an issue.
I've just installed Inline-C-0.82 on a 32-bit SP-5.32.1.1 using cpanm, and it all went fine.
Try turning on verbosity (cpanm -vi Inline::C). That should at least show us where the hang is happening.

Cheers,
Rob

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
