Yes.

I would make it a lower priority than various other options that
don't get tested much, such as 64-bit support.

Hmm. At one time there was an issue with PERLIO defined to 'perlio'
because the logical name is case blind so you'd end up in an infinite
iteration.  I limited the iteration but can't remember if we ended up
with PerlIO being selectable this way.  Does Test::Smoke configure
and build with PerlIO enabled and then define PERLIO to stdio and
re-run the test suite?  I think that should work on VMS but I've
never tried it.
