I was looking for the origins of fixpath() in MakeMaker and was very surprised to find it in File::Spec::VMS along with eliminate_macros(). Why are they there? They're about make macros, not filepath operations. Also, they're the only object method in File::Spec and pretty much intended to be called with a MakeMaker object.
Unless I hear protests otherwise, I'm going to copy them into ExtUtils::MM_VMS and deprecate the versions in File::Spec::VMS. I don't think they're used outside of MakeMaker, I'm currently scanning CPAN to check. -- Michael G.
