-=head1 NAME
-
-Win32CORE - Win32 CORE function stubs
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-This library provides stubs for the functions marked as [CORE] in L<Win32>.
-See that document for usage information. When any of these functions are
-called, the full Win32 module is loaded automatically. It is preferred
-that callers of these functions explicitly C<use Win32;>.
-
-=head1 HISTORY
-
-Win32CORE was created to provide on cygwin those Win32:: functions that
-for regular win32 builds were provided by default in perl. In cygwin
-perl releases prior to 5.8.6, this module was standalone and had to
-be explicitly used. In 5.8.6 and later, it was statically linked into
-cygwin perl so this would no longer be necessary.
-
-As of perl 5.9.5/Win32 0.27, these functions have been moved into
-the Win32 module. Win32CORE provides stubs for each of the former
-CORE Win32:: functions that internally just load the Win32 module and
-call it's version, and Win32CORE is statically linked to perl for both
-cygwin and regular win32 builds. This will permit these functions to
-be updated in the CPAN Win32 module independently of updating perl.
