For some reason CygWin wasn't collapsing multiple
slashes into one, which made some Spec.t tests to fail.
Either CygWin was being too prudish or the collapsing

Cygwin needs to have libperl.dll around if trying to link
with -lperl.  Note: this change cures the test but whether
it cures CygPerl installation, I don't know: hopefully the
libperl5_7_2.dll, or the version equivalent, gets installed
also as libperl.dll to the proper place(s).

I don't think trying to bracket the hires time with lores
times is going to be portable enough: Cygwin seems to be
capable of getting hires ones rather consistently lower
than the lores ones.  So let's try average difference instead.
