[Bug binutils/11624] New: bfd build breaks wrt alpha-dec-vms

[jay dot krell at cornell dot edu]

bfd doesn't build for a few minor reasons
Some are in the same file.


 - warning-as-error: VMS calloc doesn't take size_t (int vs. long), so there is
a warning passing the address in archive.c. Ultimately I ended up using
-disable-werror, but this particular one can be fixed with a little wrapper:
_bfd_calloc_wrapper that takes two size_t's and just passes them to calloc and
returns the result.


 - static function used in a different file
   The function is vms_convert_to_var_unix_filename.
   Rename it to _bfd_vms_convert_to_var_unix_filename to follow convention.
   Declare it in vms-misc.h.


 - errors compiling the core file support because it is compiling the OSF/1
configuration

 - errors in the headers that binutils uses, uses of "globalref"
  Just #define it to be extern.
