uic.t test to compare perl calls to dcl lexicals

[Peter Prymmer]

Hi,

For a while now I have been sitting on this test that I thought might be 
of interest to
the vmsperl community.  I have not worked it into a patch, but I wanted 
this
to appear in the mailing list archive for future reference.  The tests run 
only on VMS
and more than testing things I think help to illustrate the equivalence of
the lexical calls and the perl (hence C rtl) calls employed.

# uic.t - test return values from the getpwuid() function against
#         equivalent DCL calls.  This can be expected to run on VMS only.
