t/op/goto.................................FAILED at test 53

Appears to be known issue with VMS adding extra new lines to piped
output.

t/op/gv...................................FAILED at test 67

Appears to be passing a multiple line Perl program on the command line,
which VMS does not appear to be currently able to handle.

ext/Compress/Zlib/t/03examples............FAILED at test 10
ext/Compress/Zlib/t/06gzdopen.............FAILED--unexpected output at test 0

New tests to VMS, investigation needed.

lib/Archive/Tar/t/02_methods..............FAILED--unexpected output at test 68

New test to VMS, preliminary investigation shows a pathname that is
longer than Perl on VMS can handle.

lib/ExtUtils/ParseXS/t/basic..............FAILED--unexpected output at test 3

VMS specific code needs to be written for the PERL module being tested.
Needs option file and fixed compile/link syntax.

lib/ExtUtils/t/basic......................FAILED at test 67

This test fails on VMS if the logical name "BIN" is defined and the DECC feature DECC$UNIX_PATH_BEFORE_LOGNAME is not not also enabled.

The GNV product defines the BIN logical name in the system table, so there is no way to locally undefine it by non-privileged users.

Patch submitted to MAKEMAKER.

lib/ExtUtils/t/PL_FILES...................FAILED at test 3

Patch submitted to MAKEMAKER.

This test will only pass now on VMS if three conditions exist.

1. The test directory is an ODS-5 volume.
2. The hardware is not a VAX.
3. The DECC feature DECC$EFS_FILE_TIMESTAMPS is enabled.

lib/Math/BigInt/t/mbi_rand................FAILED--unexpected output at test 60

Known restriction on VMS with a work around.  Real fix is to find out
how to fix the extra new lines being added to piped output.

lib/Test/Simple/t/create..................FAILED at test 7

Patch for create.t submitted to me to test by Michael G. Schwern
seems to fix.

Failed 16 test scripts out of 921

Now down to 4 scripts failing for unknown reasons, 2 for ZLIB, 1 for
TAR, and one for ParseXS.
