Apologies if this has been asked before.

Actually, I brought it up here yesterday, as a result of trying to help
you with mod_perl alternatives:

     http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-05/msg00113.html

What the latest version of Perl
available for Cygwin. I see 5.14 but I know that 5.16 and 5.18 are out.

5.18.2 is in test.  Run setup.exe, find perl on the Select Packages
screen, then click the "5.14.4" until it says "5.18.2" instead.

Beware, because it's "test", every time you run setup.exe again, you
have to be careful to re-select it, or it will get downgraded to 5.14
again.

I think the problem is that I'm using Cygwin 64bit but when I click on 5.14.4 is doesn't change. Perhaps 5.18.2 is only compiled for 32 bit?
