Thanks for pointing this out. In 3.0.0-a8 the perl support was disabled, so 
the binary release does not include it. Perl support is introduced in the 
kdevelop 3.0.1 release. 

Currently you have two choices:
1. Compile a recent kdevelop release for yourself (and send a link to this 
list, so that we can release it.). You may inspect 
http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/kde3/compiling.php for compile instructions. This 
will be the best one, because more people will know how to compile and 
release kde packages, which will increase the spreading of kde applications 
for windows and the burden does not lay only on me. May be you are wondering, 
but recently I'm the only one who is releasing kde applications. 

2. Wait for the next release, which will need some time (probably after the 
kde 3.2 release, which will be ready end of may) 

Anyway, any suggestions or bugreport like this  is welcome.
