Excellent.  Define "added support".  Did you piggyback on the Windows
code in Ping.pm?  Did you need to make any modifications to the C
sources and/or configure.com?

Good news.  Thanks for running this down.  So does this mean that the
CRTL's ioctl does work to twiddle non-blocking mode when the network
stack is Multinet?

If you set default to the top-level source directory and run

$ @[.vms]test .exe "" -"v" [-.ext.Devel.DProf.t]DProf.t

that should give you verbose output from the test.  If that output is
not specific enough, I'm afraid the only other thing to do is read
the source of the test script and/or step through it in the Perl
debugger until you can see what's going on.
