It's been over 10 years since I played with it, but I'm pretty sure it 
Just Works: vmsperl does the redirection itself. You can

   system( "perl test.t 2>&1 >test.out" );

and the startup code within the perl interpreter strips out and performs 
the redirection. By the time you start running test.t, @ARGV is empty, 
but stdout and stderr are redirected.

Try perldoc vmsperl for more details.
