This patch makes a version of rmsexpand available for calling with

several routines do not have or need an implicit context.
This is the sixth of a multi-part conversion to remove access
violations when internal perl warning and error routines, and memory
allocation routines are called with a null pointer for the implicit
context.
I will look at these, test them, and -- if all goes well -- apply
them, but it's likely to take me a while to get to them. In general I
agree with the principle that routines that can be called very early
in start-up before thread context is initialized do need to be
cautious about trying to access that context. I will just make a
preliminary comment that it's very hard to see what's going on by
reading the patches because they consist mostly of changes to non-
significant whitespace.
