spray the apps directory with anti-VMS napalm.

so that its lovecraftian horror is not forever lost, i reproduce below
a comment from the deleted code.

        /* 2011-03-22 SMS.
         * If we have 32-bit pointers everywhere, then we're safe, and
         * we bypass this mess, as on non-VMS systems.  (See ARGV,
         * above.)
         * Problem 1: Compaq/HP C before V7.3 always used 32-bit
         * pointers for argv[].
         * Fix 1: For a 32-bit argv[], when we're using 64-bit pointers
         * everywhere else, we always allocate and use a 64-bit
         * duplicate of argv[].
         * Problem 2: Compaq/HP C V7.3 (Alpha, IA64) before ECO1 failed
         * to NULL-terminate a 64-bit argv[].  (As this was written, the
         * compiler ECO was available only on IA64.)
         * Fix 2: Unless advised not to (VMS_TRUST_ARGV), we test a
         * 64-bit argv[argc] for NULL, and, if necessary, use a
         * (properly) NULL-terminated (64-bit) duplicate of argv[].
         * The same code is used in either case to duplicate argv[].
         * Some of these decisions could be handled in preprocessing,
         * but the code tends to get even uglier, and the penalty for
         * deciding at compile- or run-time is tiny.
