In vmsish.h:

from traditional VMS specific ino_t array type and standard 64 bit ino_t
type.
In vms.c:
1. Set default to have /dev/null work around active until it can be
verified that the problem is fixed. The logical name DECC_BUG_DEVNULL
can be used to deactivate the work around.
2. Convert all ino_t compares or assignments to use the macros in vmsish.h.
3. Fix the test for /dev/null to only check the first 9 characters.
Thanks, applied as #27015.
I am curious. Why would you not want to simply define _USE_STD_STAT?
Is it because this feature is not available on the VAX? How old of a
VMS version does this version of Perl need to compile on?
