Will fix.

Hmm, that would mean that mi-var-cmd.exp and mi-var-child.exp also 
clash.  Ah, yes found them hidden in fnchange.lst, would you object to 
me (separatly) sorting that file?

If my memory is correct, it is a namespace proof things.  While it looks 
like a two level structure dejagnu ignores this and just worries about 
the basename.  If I tell dejagnu to run the test ``var-cmd.exp'' I get 
all of them.
