    I took the native Windows MySQL binaries - no messing around with cygwin.
    I have ActiveState Perl so the DBI module came with it (and it should be with your version of perl). 
    /bin/sh: gcc: command not found
    The error is quite clear - you do not have the gcc compiler on your system. You can download it via cygwin.

    Unless you've some real reason for not using the windows binary for MySQL you are better off doing it that way - the usual host:port connection won't mind at all.
