I'd like to add my own (smaller) woes to this thread. I run the
Hobbyist Alpha kit and I've been getting a consistent failure on one of
the tests that are run prior to installation. The Hobbyist kit is VMS
7.2 with DEC C 6.0 and the make utility is the most recent version of
MMK from MadGoat.
The tests continue for a while after the failure but eventually stop. A
few questions spring to mind.
1. What could be the cause of the failure at [.pod]find ?
2. Can anything be done to "fix" it ?
2. Are there more tests I should see, or is [.run]runenv the final test ?
