[patch@34600] vms.c setup_cmddsc
Message ID:

This is part of the patch previously submitted as part of a multi-part 
patch.

This removes a trailing "." that results in ODS-5 mode when converting a 
Unix "foo/bar" specification to be "[.foo]bar.".

This is incompatible with having setup_cmddsc searching for the 
resulting binary by appending ".exe" or "." to the specification.

This allows the [.vms]test.com program to be run in the GNV/Unix 
compatible mode in order to start validating Perl for it.
