OK so now I ought to correct my correction: the $(MMS$SOURCE_LIST) while
comma separated does retain the .OBJ file types.  The command:

   LIBRARY/OBJECT/REPLACE VECTOR.OLB BITVECTOR.OBJ,VECTOR.OBJ

Knows to put BITVECTOR and VECTOR into the OLB library file.
This can be verified with the following sort of command from the
shell prompt:

    ibrary/list [.blib.arch.auto.bit.vector]vector.olb
