The updated Perl code no longer works under Cygwin. I know the goal is to get rid of Cygwin, but we can't land anything that will break the build system.

I'm debugging this now to see why it doesn't work (it seems like it should be fine). It might just be a missing Perl dependency.

It looks like making sure the Cygwin install has the Perl SSL stuff installed, and then doing:

cpan LWP::Protocol::https

is sufficient to get things working.

Please add an error message indicating that Perl LWP::Simple may be missing https support.

It broke the WinCairo bot, see bug143086 for details.

This almost certainly does not do what I expected.
