Test 20 of lib/File/Copy.t is failing on VMS because the copied file has
not inherited the creation date from the original file.
This is consistent with the way that the COPY command works from the DCL
command shell on VMS.
While I can change VMS to follow this behavior, I am concerned that it
could break things.
Also, nothing in the documentation at
http://perldoc.perl.org/File/Copy.html indicates that the new file would
be created with the dates associated with the new file. So I am curious
why this test is even being done.
My copy of "LINUX IN A NUTSHELL" also indicates that having the
destination file get the original file's attributes is not the default
behavior of the cp command.
