Ah, I forgot this: `afmtodit' handles all glyph names containing a `.'
as unnamed glyphs. This is intentional behaviour and normally what
you want.
Hmm. Perhaps we shall add an option to `afmtodit' to retain glyph
variants. Opinions?

Yes, this is one possibility. Another one is to use `\N'
(cf. `europs.tmac') to map unnamed glyphs with `.char'. However,
named glyphs are much more convenient to use...
