If copying the CORE files failed during the install (which it always will in
the released version of 5.6.0), then the linker won't find them when you
build an extension. There is a patch at
<http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/vmsperl/2000-05/msg00087.html>
that should take care of the install problems, which are not specific to VMS
version. Alternately, you can define PERL_ROOT to point to your build
directory or use backup to put a snapshot of the build directory wherever
you want.
Some test failures also have been corrected in patches posted to this list.
Why don't you send us exactly what you are getting.
