+ [[ Bug Fixes ]]
+ - Craig Berry fixed install on VMS (again, I munged the last patch)
+ - MakeMaker might not be recognizing it's in PERL_SRC on Win32.
+ Made safer.
+ - For some reason MM_VMS was using $Config{arch} instead of
+ $Config{archname}
+ - Fix (well, hack) for creating ABSPERL on VMS.
+
+ [[ Test Fixes ]]
+ - INST.t has to tell MakeMaker it's in the PERL_CORE
+ - INST_LIB doesn't change if it's in the core
+
+5.55_01 Thu Apr 4 23:58:06 EST 2002
+ [[ API Changes ]]
+ * Long deprecated INST_EXE completely removed.
+ - Removing TEST_LIBS constant (never seen in a stable MM anyway)
+ - Added $default argument to prefixify() for safer prefixification.
+
+ [[ Bug Fixes ]]
+ - $mm->{PERM_*} were not being set
+ - fixin() redundantly chmod'ing scripts. Let the Makefile do that.
+ - The above means MM_Unix will now compile cleanly under strict
+ * init_dirscan's search for Makefile.PL's will no longer look
+ inside a distdir.
+ * Fixed running tests when there are t/'s in subdirs.
+ - MM_DOS inheriting from MM_Unix instead of MM_Win32. DJGPP
+ appears to be unix-like (bleadperl@15650)
+ - Escaping constants with # in them so they're not confused as
+ make comments (bleadperl)
+ * ExtUtils::MM_Win95 didn't return a true value
+ - Fixing disttest when perl is a relative path.
+ * Fixed disttest & tests in subdirs on Win95
+ - Fixed recursive Makefile.PL scan on VMS so it skips the distdir
+ - Fixed a bug when an alternative MAKEFILE is specified and you're
+ using something other than a Makefile.PL (RT 444)
+ - Quieting uninit warning when there are no tests.
+
+ [[ Doc Fixes ]]
+ - Documented INSTALLMAN*DIR == 'none' feature.
+
+ [[ Test Fixes ]]
+ - Paul Green's which_perl patch to build a proper Perl on systems
+ that use command extensions.
+ - basic.t's Makefile.PL PREFIX call wasn't properly quoted for VMS
+ (Craig Berry)
+ - little initialization glitch in MM_Win32.t
+
+ [[ Internals ]]
+ - INST_* constants moved to init_INST
+ - INSTALL* constants moved to inst_INSTALL
+ * Internal warning supression removed.
+ - Temporarily turning off SelfLoader in MM_Unix so warnings
+ have the right line numbers.

- Rolled in patches from p5p, vmsperl & VOS (14325, 14338, 14360, 14364)

- ExtUtils::testlib now provides absolute paths into @INC.
