Compiler Error: The input line is too long

Hello,

I try to compile the latest Perl/Tk version from CPAN under Win2000
using the "Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003" and all related SDK's
But on generating the library libpTk.lib I get the error that the input
line is too long:

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 7.10.3077
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

D:\perl58\bin\perl.exe -MExtUtils::Command -e rm_rf libpTk.lib
lib -out:libpTk.lib ClientWin.obj Lang_f.obj Xlib_f.obj
......
......
The input line is too long.

Instead of the original lib.exe, because it is not included in the
Toolkit, I use link.exe in a batch file:
link /lib %*

Is there a way to avoid the error message an get Perl/Tk compiled correctly?

Thank you,
Reinhard
