Explanations of the various patches:

fcntlmodule.c
Under VMS the third argument is declared as void *

expat.h
VMS C compiler can optionally mangle name longer 
than 31 characters, so it not necessary to change 
long name

fileobject.c
As the comment indicate this solve a problem into 
test_fileinput, but I don't understand why...

fpectlmodule.c
Enable SIGFPE handler

import.c
Support of VMS filesystem ODS-5

mmapmodule.c
VMS need a fsync before a call to fstat to return  
accurate information

myreadline.c
Use of vms__StdioReadline

posixmodule.c
I have move some initialisation part to a specific VMS 
file, so I have remove it form posixmodule.c

pyexpat.c
Convert VMS filename to a UNIX style filename.

socketmodule.c
This patch is the only one which is not delimited by
#ifdef __VMS
#endif
because IMHO it fix a bug into the original code


socketmodule.h
need to include socket.h and not sys/socket.h

sysmodule.c
Convert VMS filename to a UNIX style filename.

Can you please combine the patches into a single patch,
which can be applied using

patch -p0

??? You can use "diff -ur" or "cvs diff" to create a
recursive patch.

Can you please explain the expat.h change? This is an
imported source, so I don't want to modify it unless there
is a really good reason.

The fileobject.c modification needs better analysis.
"corrects a test case problem" is not enough reason to make
such a change. Does the test case make assumptions that are
not supported by the relevant standards? Is there a bug in
VMS? etc.
