Ed,
I think you also want to drop in File::Spec::VMS.pm from a later
release, though I don't know whether that will solve the problems you
are seeing.
I think the Perl script installperl is broken in 5.5_003 and I don't
think you can simply drop the one in from 5.6.0 because some config
item names have changed ('arch' to 'archname' or something like
that). Actually it may still be broken in 5.6.0 -- I patched it at
some point and can't remember exactly when. You could look at the
vms-specific bits of installperl from a recent development release and
The Perl-style installation was never tested very well because a lot
of people just use BACKUP to make a snapshot of the Perl source; the
only real disadvantage of this is that it doubles the disk space of
an actual install.
