Automated smoke report for 5.11.2 patch

ALMA: HP rx2600 (1.50GHz/6.0MB) (IA64/2 cpu)
on openvms - V8.3-1H1
using ? CC/DECC version 70390018
smoketime 15 hours 50 minutes (average 7 hours 55 minutes)
Summary: FAIL(F)
Shortly after this smoke, xdg checked in an update to Module::Build
which, hopefully, will solve some of the fails below.
Some I think, yes. There's a later smoke now posted to the list
(though I can't find a URL for it yet).
If not, a verbose failure report would be stellar.
I'll try to write up what I know about what's still failing. I've
been juggling multiple things in crunch mode lately and unable to get
any time for Perl fixes.
On a somewhat-related note, I've managed to get myself set up with a
"hobbyist" copy of PersonalAlpha and with VMS media. I can boot and
login, but I'm without license keys. Do we have a friendly source of
VMS
keys these days or should I be trying to sign up for DECUS or its
successor?
You'll need a free DECUSserve membership in order to get free hobbyist
licenses. See
<http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1416>
It's all perfectly legal as long as you're not using the system for
commercial purposes.
PersonalAlpha is the free version of a very impressive emulation
product. Bear in mind that it's true emulation, though, not
hypervisor-style virtualization, so it will be much, much slower than
the host system. The free version is also limited to a miniscule
slice of memory by today's standards (I think it's 256MB). Basically
it's designed to be a drop-in replacement for a mid-1990s workstation,
and it does that admirably. It is possible to do a build of a recent
Perl on one of these (I've done it) but it might take 12-24 hours
depending on the host system.
