In Module/Build.pm :
It is vmsish if OS is VMS and the make program is one of MMK or MMS.
That seems wrong to me because it assumes we'd only need to do some
things natively when run in compatibility mode. I think we should
leave it as a general property and if compatibility mode needs
something else as well, then do the something else there.
We have two cases, one is if we want to run gnu make on VMS and the
other which is more common, is running MMS/MMK on VMS.
When running gnu make on VMS, the CRTL will likely be in the UNIX
report mode so the VMSish behavior will generally not be desired.
I don't think this bit looks right. M::B isn't just about how to run
make, so is_vmsish() shouldn't be thinking about makefiles either,
just what platform it's running on.
