Craig,

I built perl-5.12.2 on AlphaServer 800 HP C V7.3-009 on OpenVMS Alpha V8.3

Failed 8 tests out of 1636, 99.51% okay.
        ../cpan/CPANPLUS/t/03_CPANPLUS-Internals-Source.t
        ../cpan/CPANPLUS/t/15_CPANPLUS-Shell.t
        ../cpan/Module-Build/t/tilde.t
        ../cpan/Time-HiRes/t/HiRes.t
        ../cpan/autodie/t/recv.t
        ../dist/Net-Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t
        ../lib/warnings.t
        op/cmp.t

I have not yet run tests to see if the problems introduced after 5.8.6 on stream records (and those weird directory corruptions) have been fixed, will report on that later.
