Hi there,

I've got a fix here to stop the importer breaking when it encounters
actions that deliver to duplicate paths, but which are protected from
each other by correct variants.

I've tagged this on to the import-tests wad that I originally sent out
back in October last year.  I've added unit tests that check for this
breakage, in particular.

While importer.py remains a crutch that we hope won't be long-lived,
every breakage is extremely disruptive and setting up a test environment
to reproduce errors turns out to be quite complex.  Getting these back
to the gate would be good, but I'd rather not spend a lot more time
getting the unit tests perfected.

The other importer.py tests aren't as exhaustive, but I would like to
see any future importer.py fixes in the gate being accompanied by 
tests to verify each change if at all possible please.

Comments welcome?

        cheers,
                        tim
