VMS perl 5.6.1 system() stdout redirect problem

Hi,

I have reported this problem before, and wonder whether there is any
patch for this?  (This problem does not exist in perl 5.00406.)

In the following perl script,
the output of system() seems to be lost if I redirect the stdout to a
file. 

test.prl
==========
system("copy test1.tmp test2.tmp");
print stdout "output to stdout";
print stderr "output to stderr";

A:001029> perl test.prl
%COPY-E-OPENIN, error opening DSA0:[DYMAX.001029]TEST1.TMP; as input
-RMS-E-FNF, file not found
output to stdout
                output to stderr

A:001029> perl test.prl >jy1.tmp 2>jy2.tmp
A:001029> type jy1.tmp
output to stdout
A:001029> type jy2.tmp
output to stderr


Thanks,

JY
