The load conditional code does a require using the VMS format, and
since it does not match the key in UNIX format, modules can be
loaded twice. This showed up by causing the extract tests to emit
diagnostics about routines being overridden.
This patch forces the %INC key to be in UNIX format so that the
modules will not be loaded twice.
In 01_Module_Load.t, on VMS, the $file for the module will now be
returned in UNIX format.
In 01_Module_Load_Conditional.t, some work arounds are needed for
issues with VMS handling of UNIX pathnames incorrectly.
Since MLC uses Module::Load, wouldn't it just be an easier fix to
always unixify paths on VMS?
How does this patch look for you?
