Hi,
I got a report of some VMS problems in File::Spec, and I put together
this patch relative to 3.17:

Could someone on VMS check it out? Thanks.
I will see if I can find some time tomorrow. I have a long list of
issues with VMS file parsing problems that I am working through.
Can you find a way so that '^.' is not treated as '.'? For a quick fix,
if the ^ character precedes any thing that is a non Alpha-numeric, then
that that character is not treated as a delimiter in a file
specification. Treat '^' in a VMS specification like '\' in a UNIX
style string.
Getting File::Spec to understand that would help a lot.
