With Perl 5.8.4 on OpenVMS Alpha 7.1, an older, directory-depth
challenged version, basic.t and recurs.t fail because they blow the
8-level limit.

With Perl 5.8.4 on OpenVMS Alpha 7.3-1, basic.t fails the disttest
check (#67).  It appears to be supplying the macro definition twice, which
causes it to exceed the command length limit:

# cp [.lib.big]dummy.pm [.blib.lib.big]dummy.pm
# Set Default [.liar]
# 
MMK/MACRO=(LIBPERL_A="libperl.olb",LINKTYPE="dynamic",OPTIMIZE="/NoList",PREFIX="../dummy-install",PASTHRU_DEFINE="")
 /Descrip= Descrip.MMS all /Macro=(LIBPERL_A="libperl.olb",  
LINKTYPE="dynamic",     OPTIMIZE="/NoList",     PREFIX="../dummy-install",      
PASTHRU_DEFINE="")
# %DCL-W-TKNOVF, command element is too long - shorten
#
