Right.  Both are "supposed" to be supported, and therefore should be tested,
but I don't think mine is the only system that balks at $, so as to avoid
quirky shell evaluation behavior.  Thus the suggestion to go with overlays.
We could, alternatively, strongly prefer _ instead of $, and either not test
$ or test it minimally (which is, I think, what we do now with _).   I don't
think being "right" on both is expensive, though, apart from the initial
transition cost I'm offering to do.
