The attached 1423-line patch adds the following files to FreeTDS:

vms/config_h.vms          config.h template
vms/configure.com         configuration script
vms/descrip_mms.template  Makefile template
vms/getpass.c             implements missing function
vms/libodbc.opt           for linking against dynamic library
vms/odbc_driver_axp.opt   linker file to create dynamic library
vms/odbc_unimplemented.c  stub for missing ODBC routines
vms/README.vms            VMS-specific documentation


Since everything is in the vms/ directory, I see no risk with adding
this as part of 0.61, but on the other hand I understand the committers
are busy and it might have to wait until 0.62. In any case I realize
there may be things people want to discuss before this is accepted and
I'm more than happy to do that.

BTW, neither patch I previously suggested for the replacements routines
is necessary since the configure script now generates the Makefile from
a template after ascertaining what is and isn't available from the C
library. Whether it was worth 100 lines of DCL to save three lines of C
is now a moot point since it's done.

Thanks for considering this.

Regards,
  Craig
