NAME
       Module::Build::Platform::VMS - Builder class for VMS platforms
DESCRIPTION
       This module inherits from "Module::Build::Base" and alters a few minor
       details of its functionality.  Please see Module::Build for the general
       docs.
   Overridden Methods
       _set_defaults
           Change $self->{build_script} to 'Build.com' so @Build works.
       cull_args
           '@Build foo' on VMS will not preserve the case of 'foo'.  Rather
           than forcing people to write '@Build "foo"' we'll dispatch case-
           insensitively.
       manpage_separator
           Use '__' instead of '::'.
       prefixify
           Prefixify taking into account VMS' filepath syntax.
       _quote_args
           Command-line arguments (but not the command itself) must be quoted
           to ensure case preservation.
       have_forkpipe
           There is no native fork(), so some constructs depending on it are
           not available.
       _backticks
           Override to ensure that we quote the arguments but not the command.
       find_command
           Local an executable program
       _maybe_command (override)
           Follows VMS naming conventions for executable files.  If the name
           passed in doesn't exactly match an executable file, appends .Exe
           (or equivalent) to check for executable image, and .Com to check
           for DCL procedure.  If this fails, checks directories in DCL$PATH
           and finally Sys$System: for an executable file having the name
           specified, with or without the .Exe-equivalent suffix.
       do_system
           Override to ensure that we quote the arguments but not the command.
       oneliner
           Override to ensure that we do not quote the command.
       _infer_xs_spec
           Inherit the standard version but tweak the library file name to be
           something Dynaloader can find.
       rscan_dir
           Inherit the standard version but remove dots at end of name.  If
           the extended character set is in effect, do not remove dots from
           filenames with Unix path delimiters.
       dist_dir
           Inherit the standard version but replace embedded dots with
           underscores because a dot is the directory delimiter on VMS.
       man3page_name
           Inherit the standard version but chop the extra manpage delimiter
           off the front if there is one.  The VMS version of
           splitdir('[.foo]') returns '', 'foo'.
       expand_test_dir
           Inherit the standard version but relativize the paths as the native
           glob() doesn't do that for us.
       _detildefy
           The home-grown glob() does not currently handle tildes, so provide
           limited support here.  Expect only UNIX format file specifications
           for now.
       find_perl_interpreter
           On VMS, $^X returns the fully qualified absolute path including
           version number.  It's logically impossible to improve on it for
           getting the perl we're currently running, and attempting to
           manipulate it is usually lossy.
       localize_file_path
           Convert the file path to the local syntax
       localize_dir_path
           Convert the directory path to the local syntax
       ACTION_clean
           The home-grown glob() expands a bit too aggressively when given a
           bare name, so default in a zero-length extension.
