The test passes for me on OpenVMS Alpha v8.3. The test doesn't care that errno is 20, it cares that errno is different when sending a non-existent filename to C<open> versus sending the same filename to C<do> inside an eval. Whether those two things are really guaranteed to be the same is a good question; that assumes a lot about the internals of C<do> and the order in which they happen. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
