EFS 1.15 bug: 19.34, wakeup, NT, VMS

Dear bug team:

I don't have any "wakeup" program in Emacs 19.34 (on any platform),
so I diked out the losing call to efs-start-polling in efs-start-process.
I imagine that something actually needs to be done about that.

I did "Find File: ~//cstacy@a1:login.com".
Efs seems to have some slight confusion about my user name.
It asked me for the password for "cstacy@a1" in lowercase.
But then it went looking for a buffer based on user-login-name.
If it's VMS, maybe it should know to put the user name in all caps.
There might be other problems involving case-sensitivity with VMS.

 Opening FTP connection to a1...
 Logging in as user cstacy...
 Logging in as user cstacy...done
 Getting pwd...
 Getting pwd...done
 Loading efs-vms...
 Loading efs-vms...done
 Listing /a1:~/...
 Listing /a1:~/...done
 No buffer named *ftp CStacy@a1*

A second confusion is that if I ask for a dired or file in "/cstacy@a1:[cstacy]"
it adds in a home directory, resulting in: 
    ftp> dir SYS$SYSUSER:[CSTACY][cstacy] /tmp/efsa00209
    200 PORT command successful.
    501 File specification syntax error.
