Regarding the zlib failures, I've uploaded a beta release of Compress::Zlib
version 2 to CPAN. One of the things I've done with the new version is
rewrite the underlying code that VMS is tripping over. [FYI the gzopen
interface now uses a perl filehandle rather than a C filehandle].
Could someone with access to a VMS box try building the new Compress::Zlib
please?
If this new release builds and runs its harness first time on VMS without
any problems I'll be very surprised, but it would be nice to know if I've
addressed this particular issue.
