I cleaned up a few loose ends on this today. Example: config/init/hints/vms.pm: This class had overwritings of cc_build and cc_run which I adapted to the new approach, i.e., pass $conf as first argument.
I have no way to test on VMS and I don't think we ever get smoke tests on VMS, so this will have to be validated at some future point. I will be opening a new ticket in which Parrot::Configure::Step is renamed something like Parrot::Configure::Compiler::Utils and Parrot::Configure::Step::Base is renamed Parrot::Configure::Step. Otherwise, this ticket is resolved.
