True; that's a pain.

I don't think we do nowadays, no.  Might some software get confused by
the "..h" extension?  Emacs treats "..h" like ".h"; perhaps that's
good enough.  Another option is to use "-e.h" as an extension, or
something like that.  But I like the brevity of "..h".

I'd rather not have gnulib-tool rename files as it imports them, as
that adds confusion.
