| Makepatch name convention is no good.  I was complaining about this (to

makepatch name convention is the convention, I find it pretty simple, and
easy to remember, it does "s|/|__|" and that's all.  Whatever the
convention, there's always someone who will not like it, but it doesn't
really matter, it's a convention so that everyone knows how to name patch
files the same way.
