Nick,
On VMS, command-line options are upcased by the command interpreter
and then downcased by the C library unless protected by double
quotes. Before the patch below I was seeing this:
MCR briana$dka0:[craig.perl]miniperl.exe compile -o EBCDIC.C -F EBCDIC.fnm
Unknown option: f
This issue comes up a lot in the test suite and I'm pretty sure that
double quotes around the option do the right thing everywhere.
