Great, thanks.  Unfortunately we're not quite done yet.  It seemed to
work before because I had a PERL5LIB definition that compensated for
the following problem.  When it gets to building the utilities, it
fails like so:

MCR Sys$Disk:[]miniperl.exe "-I[.lib]" [.UTILS]PERLDOC.PL
Can't locate Config_heavy.pl in @INC (@INC contains: lib/VMS_AXP lib 
perl_root:[lib.VMS_AXP.5_9_2] perl_root:[lib] perl_root:[lib.si
te_perl.VMS_AXP] perl_root:[lib.site_perl] /perl_root/lib/site_perl .) at 
lib/Config.pm line 62.
Extracting "perldoc.com" (with variable substitutions)
%RMS-E-FNF, file not found

Since Config_heavy.pl does exist and is located in the same places
that Config.pm is located, I don't understand why it can find the one
but not the other.  I'll keep looking.

Discussion of missing config symbols snipped.

It should be easy enough to add those to configure.com -- I'll look into it.
