RE: new -fext-core bug (X = zdwX)

Okay, my bad.  Then there's a bug in the core parser, since it doesn't
accept these.  The toplevel 'vdef' non-terminal expects first a qname,
which is "name" or "mname '.' name".  However, according to the lexer,
name must begin with a lower-case character...should this be changed so
that 'vdef' becomes "name" or "mname.name" or "cname" or "mname.cname"?
