This line of code:

   $ decw$define_term = decw$define_term

occurs only in SYS$MANAGER:DECW$STARTUP.COM.  It seems to me that the 
only context in which it would make sense is setting a local symbol to 
be equal to a global symbol.  However, if that is the case, then where 
is the global symbol defined?  (I realise that one can define a symbol 
by means other than having it present in clear text in a DCL procedure, 
but since I don't know the source for the (presumably) global definition 
it makes it difficult to understand what is going on.
