For the export example, it's just a matter of using a different bash syntax 
from what the magic regex expects, which is completely irrelevant if it goes 
in the filename instead.  For the versionator one, you would change the 
extension at the same time that you changed the version, removing the need to 
modify the file contents.

But the point isn't that we want to be able to do those things.  The point is 
that if the EAPI is in the filename, it's blatantly obvious that it has to be 
static, but adding strange and unintuitive restrictions on which shell 
constructs can be used is, well, strange and unintuitive.
