Some folks have reported clean builds and tests with a pre-extant
PERL_ROOT and PERLSHR logical. In general the test suite is quite
careful about avoinding dependencies on PERL_ROOT and PERLSHR to
avoid such upgrade problems.
Is PERL_ROOT=DRA0:[PERL5.] the new or old installation location?

Thanks (did you test on Win32?).

For me on one Alpha test 7 fails when run under `MMS test`
but they all pass (including 7) when I type:
@perl_setup
perl t/lib/vmsish.t

What does
$ show logical sys$timezone_differential
tell you about your system's UTC TDF? I am in the PST so I have:
$ sho log sys$timezone_differential
"SYS$TIMEZONE_DIFFERENTIAL" = "-28800" (LNM$SYSTEM_TABLE)
