   only worked on VAX (VMS 6.2, I think), and we tried defining it here
   which only worked on alpha, I think.  In any event, the VMS C library's
   concept of uid_t is fundamentally broken anyway (getuid() returns only
   the group part of the UIC), so we are better off with higher-level
   hooks like get_homedir and SYSTEM_GETCALLER.  */
