Thanks, Craig!
This worked fine for me as well.
(Dang simple patch -- I should have tried that. I messed my head up by
trying to figure out what the WRITE macro actually did instead.)

Subject: [PATCH Storable 2.06] const
declaration fixup
01/23/2003
04:24 PM
With recent versions of Compaq C under OpenVMS, the latest Storable
version fails to compile like so:
CC/DECC
/Include=[]/Standard=Relaxed_ANSI/Prefix=All/Obj
=.obj/NoList/NOANSI_ALIAS/Define=("VERSION=""2.06""","XS_VERSION
=""2.06""")/
Include=(perl_root:[lib.VMS_AXP.5_6_1.CORE])/Optimize STORABLE.c
WRITE(header, length);
....^
%CC-W-NOTCONSTQUAL, In this statement, the referenced type of the
pointer value "header" is const, but the referenced type of the target
of this assignment is not.
at line number 3369 in file D0:[CRAIG.STORABLE-2_06]STORABLE.XS;1
The patch below takes care of this, after which the extension builds ok
and all tests pass under Perl 5.6.1, OpenVMS Alpha 7.3-1, Compaq C 6.5.
