VMS - 442 Tests in 105 Categories No Failures.

[John E. Malmberg]

I want to write add a few VMS specific tests before submitting a revised 
patch to the two previously submitted but not applied patches.

* Unix shell simulation improved.
  Now supports variable assignment before command.
  foo=bar command.

* Unix pathname handling improved including autodetection.

* VMS handling of empty commands improved.


commands.c - VMS FILE_LIST_SEPARATOR now comma or space
             via runtime setting.

function.c - As above, now reports [] or ./ based on
             VMS CRTL UNIX report setting.

job.c - VMS Handle empty commands properly.

main.c - Set VMS compatibility options.
         ':' and '>' are also MAP_DIRSEP on VMS.

variable.c - Fix enviroment variable lookup.
             Remove VMS specific @D,%D, etc and use Unix ones.

vmsjobs.c - Completely replaced command line parser re-writer.
            Old code could not be salvaged or repaired.

vms_export_symbol.c - Fix DCL Symbol lengths.

makeint.h - Support for the above.
