That conflicts with the (v for vdg) windows descriptors someone added. I 
had to rename the patched tsedit from vi to to vim to get rid of that 
error. Its got nothing to do with 63 vs 68 09's. Does this only happen 
on a 6309? I'd think it would be rejected by either. In my case just the 
expansion beyond a two char name was enough to fix the confusion.
