This patch breaks building on VMS, as one of the resulting symbols is
longer than 31 characters.
I did count it and found that it was somewhat under 32 (24, if I count it
correctly). How long is the longest prefix added to these strings to make
a symbol?
The macro expands to:
Perl_Ibreakable_sub_generation_ptr in global.c just below #ifdef
DEBUG_LEAKING_SCALARS.
The macro adds 9 characters for a total of 33 assuming that you counted
correctly.
