   On VMS, using g++ 1.36.3-, the following code does not compile:

       #define	stdin	$$PsectAttributes_NOSHR$$stdin
       #define	stdout	$$PsectAttributes_NOSHR$$stdout
       #define	stderr	$$PsectAttributes_NOSHR$$stderr

       extern int *stdin;
       extern int *stdout;
       extern int *stderr;

       extern void frob(int *, int *);

       void
       sub()
       {
	   frob(stdin, stdout);
       }

   The compiler complains on lines 5,6,7:

	   type name expected before `*'

   If the leading "$$" characters are replaced by "_$" in lines 1, 2, and 3 ,
   the file compiles cleanly.  Dollars are legal identifier characters on VMS.

If you want to use $, then give the compiler another token to do
internal naming.  #define NO_DOLLAR_IN_LABEL and recompile those files
which reference that #ifdef.
