maint-5.10 status on VMS

I've finally got Test::Smoke mostly working on VMS except for my local
mail configuration, thus the manual attachment here. It shows the
only failures I've seen recently:
lib/ExtUtils/t/
Installapi2....................................FAILED at test 15
lib/ExtUtils/t/
Install........................................FAILED at test 15
which started happening occasionally (but not consistently) after
Yves' recent changes to ExtUtils::Install. When I run these tests
individually they usually (though not always) fail once and then
succeed when run again. The test that fails is the same in both
scripts and looks like:
install( { 'blib/lib' => 'install-test/lib/perl',
read => 'install-test/packlist',
write => 'install-test/packlist'
},
0, 1);
ok( ! -d 'install-test/lib/perl', 'install made dir (dry run)');
So it's testing for the non-existence of a directory that should not
be there because we only did a dry run. The most likely explanation
is something is not getting cleaned up properly elsewhere so we are
finding something we shouldn't. So far I have not been able to spot
why the fairly minimal recent changes would cause that, but I'll keep
looking.
