While I can't locate anything that uses this PIR, does not this file constitute a valid test of it?

t/library/File_Spec.t

It runs as part of every make test:

t/library/File_Spec.........................ok

  • milestone set to 1.0

Fair enough. But if the only place the code is run is in the test suite, then it's still unused and removable. I've added it to DEPRECATED.pod and marked the milestone here appropriately.
