I have more information on the lib/ExtUtils/t/basic.t test hang.
It does not work at all unless I have a logical name PERL_CORE
defined.  I could add a DEFINE and DEASSIGN to TEST.COM
but unfortunately it is still stuck on trying to carry out File::Find like
activities.  For example in an environment where I cannot override
the definition of a logical named SITE_PERL and with PERL_CORE
defined to be "1" I see:

$ define perl_core
_Equ name: "1"
$ perl lib/extutils/t/basic.t

It appears that lib/ExtUtils/t/basic.t is at least as confused about
logical
names pointing to directories as is File::Find.
