I am glad to hear that.

I only have a rather old version lying around, namely MakeMaker 6.17 as
shipped with perl 5.8.1, but it appeared to have trouble on VMS with
EXE_FILES and I was not able to install perl main scripts with "mmk
install"
(I have to copy the derived *.com files by hand into PERL_ROOT:).

I'll try to grab new versions of everything and report back.
