I am still not building as of
blead 2009-03-22.00:46:09 ac56ae2e858af2a770b8e1bbf5cc5d10917fbc46 
GitLive-blead-788-gac56ae2

These files are still reported as missing.
t/Module_Pluggable/lib/EditorJunk/Plugin/Bar.pm~,Bar.pm_

I keep trying to use rsync on VMS to pull down the Bar.pm~ file and it 
keeps returning:

client: nothing to do: perhaps hyou need to specify some filenames or

not in the headers of the NNTP postings.
