Without a champion for this compiler, there's not much we can do; Our current targets for 
Windows include, as I understand it, cygwin, strawberry perl and its build system, and recent 
versions of VisualC++. Borland isn't in our core list for the upcoming 1.0 release.

If we do find a Borland champion, they should open a new ticket at https://trac.parrot.org/.

Rejecting this ticket; Regards.
