My bad.  I left in a / when I unified the VMS tool_xsubpp().  Its better
solved by changing $(XSUBPPDIR)/xsbupp to $(XSUBPPDIR)$(DFSEP)xsubpp.

The only other difference is VMS had this:

XSUBPPDEPS = @tmdeps

and Unix had this:

XSUBPPDEPS = @tmdeps \$(XSUBPP)

I'm assuming that some fix was put into the Unix version and it was
forgotten for VMS.  It went in as part of a large, rambling change from
the cfperl branch years ago.
