Yeah, I discovered that the problem was merely that @INC did not include
::lib:MacPPC: when File::Spec was loaded, so I moved the push @INC line to
the BEGIN block, and it solved the problem.  All tests are passing now
except:

* ExtUtils (most of it needs porting)
* h2ph/h2xs (need porting)
* Devel::DProf (needs porting)
* s2p (two tests fail unexpectedly)
* Time::HiRes (problems with alarm)
* die_exit (broken $? values in MacPerl, also problem elsewhere in tests)
* warnings (sysopen doesn't warn on reading from file opened for WRONLY)
* sprintf (%g formats somewhat broken in sfio)
* taint.t (no warning for taint when opening O_RDWR)

So we're looking good.  The last four I am ignoring for now, as they are
longstanding issues in GUSI or SFIO that I can't easily tackle.  The first
five there would be nice to have fixed at some point, but aside from
Time::HiRes (which I am going to work on soonish) are relatively low
priority.
