I realized that a little later, and tried with the correct line
NGFA$ mcr [-]dbgminiperl "-I[-.lib]" [.op]pack.t
It doesn't seem to make any difference though.
You're of course right, I forgot SH CALL, here it is:

Your other remarks make me wonder, whether IEEE floating point format might be the
problem - I built perl with IEEE floats mainly because @CONFIGURE suggested it as
default, not because I explicitly need it. Tomorrow I'll try a build with VAX-style
floating point - it's gotten too late here to start that now (1:00 AM, I need to
expand the kit on a different disk to avoid overwriting my current build, and the
total build/test itself takes 4 hours on my old machine) but I'll be back.
Of course, if you have other ideas - let me know.
Best regards
