7after 5.005_03:
8     Fixed the VOS port to work with the current version of VOS POSIX.1.
9     Fixed "build.cm" to work-around C compiler bug pcg-98 that affected
10          pp.c when compiled for PA-RISC systems.
11     Updated "config.h" to latest version.
12     Changed "compile_perl.cm" from a sample macro to a real one.
13     Changed "perl.bind" to use Unix-style slash-separated pathnames
14          instead of VOS-style greater-than-separated pathnames.
15     Updated "README.vos" to document the location of the VOS perl
16          libraries.
17     Created "vos_accept.c" to redirect standard "accept" call to
18          nonstandard VOS "_accept" call.
19     Updated "vos_dummies.c" to agree with current version of VOS POSIX.1.
20     Updated "vosish.h" to track changes made to unixish.h.

22after 5.005_02:
23     Initial release.
24     Supplied "build.cm" command macro to build perl.
25     Supplied "Changes" to document the change history.
26     Supplied "compile_perl.cm" to launch processes to compile all
27          four versions of the Perl 5 binaries.
28     Supplied "config.h" to configure Perl 5 to VOS. Unfortunately,
29          since VOS does not have the configure tool, this file was
30          built by hand by editing "config_h.SH".
31     Supplied "config_h.SH.orig", which is the version of this file
32          that was current for version 5.005_02. Use this to discover
33          any subsequent changes to config_h.SH that must be
34          hand-copied into the real config.h.
35     Supplied "perl.bind" to control the VOS binder.
36     Supplied "README.vos" to describe the VOS port.
37     Supplied "test_vos_dummies.c" to test the VOS dummy functions.
38     Supplied "vos_dummies.c" to trap unimplemented POSIX functions.
39     Supplied "vosish.h" to configure Perl 5 to VOS.
