Just uploaded a new MakeMaker snapshot (see www.makemaker.org).  This fixes
the gross problems on VMS, due to an off-by-one error in split_command()
the commands generated for pm_to_blib were too long.  So now at least
you can get to mmk test.  I wanted to shove something out for the VMS
folks to play with.

A number of tests are failing.

t/basic.t           44  1024    48   20  41.67%  27-45 48
t/inst_prefix.t     44  1024    38   16  42.11%  21-36
t/install.t         44  1024    17    6  35.29%  9 13-17
t/liblist.t         44  1024     5    1  20.00%  5
t/split_command.t   44  1024     6    2  33.33%  4 6

basic.t appears to be due to a mistake in ExtUtils::Install about file path
name normalization

inst_prefix.t seems to failing because of the restored old behavior of
leaving prefix macros in the installation macros.  Something VMS can't do.
I think I just need a skip there.

install.t is the ExtUtils::Install file normalization problems which need
investigation.

liblist.t looks like its just because the VMS version
(ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid::_vms_ext) isn't mirroring the diagnostics of the
Unix version.

split_command.t I haven't investigated yet.  It may be a shell escaping
problem.
