Summary: OpenVMS patches

Initial Comment:
The attach file contains the patches of the Core files necessary to build Python for OpenVMS.
All the patches used conditional compilation test on __VMS, so I may not  be disruptive for the initial 
code.

11 files have been updated:

Python/exceptions.c
Python/import.c
Modules/getbuildinfo.c
Modules/getpatch.c
Modules/main.c
Modules/posixmodule.c
Modules/pwdmodule.c

I have a number of comments and questions:

- What is the purpose of VMSerror? It appears to be unused.
Can you use just OSError instead? If not, it should be VMSError.

- There are various formatting problems (indentation, spaces
after function names).

- Is it really necessary to compute the link time?

- Why do you need psxmod_gat_psxpath? Copying into
psxmod_gt_psxpath appears to do the same thing?

- what is the purpose of psxmod_to_vms_action?
