+- Normally variable names should be like C-identifiers plus '.'. In
+ particular, in simple expansion (i.e., $package-$version) we assume
+ characters [/-] end the name. But this can be overrident with paren-
+ expansion (i.e., $(package-version)). In assignment we always use
+ full name until space, '=', or '=+'.
