Good catch.  I've committed the attached as #32195, which gets us
nearly back to where we were. In addition to getting rid of the dots
in the temp  directory names, it restores several VMS fixes that went
missing when we integrated from CPAN.  These were probably my fault
for forgetting to send things to Ken as well as check them in.

The xs.t failure on other platforms is still there.  On VMS, tilde.t
is a new failure.  _detildefy changed quite a bit and this will take
some more digging to work out.
