+name clash between two different commands.
+
+_pick_variant does this by running the command and comparing its output
+against a series of patterns. The command to run is taken from the
+first element of the var(words) array unless specified with the tt(-c)
+option. Arguments to be passed on to it can be specified at the end
+after all the other arguments. The patterns are specified by the series
+of var(command)tt(=)var(pattern) arguments where var(command) is a
+label used to describe each command. If none of the patterns match, the
+final command label is taken and 1 is returned.
+
