So we made a mistake with PN and PV and may compound it with EAPI.
How long before we *must* have other pieces of information in the
filename?
When will the filename get so long as to become unwhieldy ?
Lets fix it properly now since it will be much more painful to put an
extendable solution in place later.
It reminds me of other hacks in the history of the PC which we would do
well not to repeat.
e.g. the MSDOS Partition Table, the Extended Partition, the High Memory
Area.
