Wow. I apologize. I thought I had that under control... :-)
I wonder if VMS have changed along the way, or if it has always been 
like that...?

It's my feeling that it has been always like that, anyway I can certify that
VAX/VMS V4.7 works as I expected:

[...Same tests as done by Bob]
FLORRY::RPT$ type test.dat;-0

P.S.: This V4.7 was obtained by upgrading a V4.6, so I'm assuming that even on
that release the behaviour would have been the same.
