MATH X01-02 released

A minor irritant bug in the MATH package was squashed today moments after it reared its ugly head. A demonstration of the problem is:

$ a = "test"
$ math a = 1
DCL symbol "A" has illegal chars - result may not be what you intended
$

Of course this should not occur, and the prior value of symbol "A" should just get overwritten.

In addition, the utility now uses proper OpenVMS messages instead of un*xy fprintfs to stderr.
