The VMS Perl build procedure looks for Bar.pm_ when it can not find Bar.pm~.

For the older VMS filesystem, '~' is an illegal character in filenames, 
and the VMS UNZIP utility will replace it with an "_".  The VMS port of 
Perl also will make this type of substitution in many places.

In a later post, I reported that the issue is that I was using the "-C" 
option on rsync which causes it to ignore any files that CVS normally 
ignores, so I have the file now.
