VMS: compensate for command line length limits with a logical name
Sometimes, you might end up with a rather long compile line due to
excessively long /INCLUDE directories. Compensate for it by making
a temporary logical name with them and using said logical name as
/INCLUDE argument.
A note was added to NOTES.VMS regarding these limitations.
