It should only be include files VMS has issues with.

If that's the problem, then it shouldn't be much trouble to have a separate script that rewrites the file names and source code to follow the POSIX portable filename rules. We could include that script as a separate file in Gnulib, or perhaps as a gnulib-tool option. This would avoid the need to change existing code, and I assume Bruno would be OK with something along those lines.

That being said, wouldn't it be simpler for you to switch your VMS development host's file system to ODS-5? That way, you should be able to use these file names as-is, and you'll be less likely to run into similar problems with programs other than Gnulib.
