You are apparently missing the /translation=concealed which is needed to
better simulate the disk change.

I would strongly recommend that in the transition you change all public
physical disk device use to be concealed rooted logicals so that you
will not need to ever go through such a transition again.

On the VMS systems that I managed, I never allowed users or applications
to use physical device names. This allows changing the physical
hardware with out notifying the users or updating the device
configuration files.

The location of the source tree should not matter for the DCL build.

I generally test with concealed rooted logical names and a search list
so that I can set the source directories to be read-only and the results
of the build procedure to go in their own directory tree.

The GNV based build requires logical name search lists and concealed
rooted devices. When the GNV based curl build procedures are
incorporated into the curl source they will require Bash 4.2.45, which
is currently being tested for a release on VMS. Bash 4.2.39 can be
used, but you have to workaround a bug.

I have also noticed that my tests were with 7.30.0-20130321 which may be
a daily build before the official 7.30.0 kit.

bash-4.2$ ../../src/curl --version
