???? Over which tree? texmf/? That's not true, to start with font
names. But it's also not true for macro files. We can assume that
macro files for one format have unique file names. But not in a wider
area. Well, above I also added the restriction that they should not
conflict with generic/. (Since generic is used for every format, by
definition.)
