These are vpls which map the old ams symbol fonts msx* and msy* to the new ones, msa* and msb* This works slightly better than to copy msa* to msx* etc, particularly in the case where old dvis are around --mahilata

msx2msa – Simulate msxm and msym fonts using msam and msbm
In the deeps of time, the AMS distributed mathematical symbol
fonts called msxm and msym; these fonts were
designed using the original (SAIL) version of Metafont and for a
long time after the demise of that system were only available as
300 dpi bitmaps.
Eventually, the symbols were re-implemented using ‘modern’
Metafont in fonts called msam and msbm. The
virtual fonts of this bundle implement the encoding of the old
fonts using the glyphs of the new fonts, and can be used as
drop-in replacements
in documents (and even when processing DVI files).
