> couple of minor VMS-specific changes, and a small change to freebcp,

> are the three changes:
> 
> -- Improve non-tty handling in vms/getpass.c
> -- Workaround for MMS build utility confusing foo/bar.c with 
> foo/baz/bar.c
> -- src/apps/freebcp.c tried to get column count after the 
> structure that
> holds it has already been freed and reinitialized.
> 
> The VMS-specific changes could wait for 0.64 if I'm the only 
> one holding
> up the release. On the other hand, they pose no risk to other 
> platforms
> and they test out ok on VMS.
> 
> I think the freebcp issue renders it unuseable, at least with TDS 7.0,
> which is what I was testing with. Each call to dbresults() 
> wipes out the
> tds-level data, so you have to get the contents of
> tds->res_info->num_cols into the dblib structures immediately 
> after the
> relevant dbresults() call, not two or three calls later as 
> was happening
> before my patch.
