The xforms port was always using Form* for our code and form_* for
generated code.  Then other ports started and people refused to entertain
their intellects and just copied the naming convention of the xforms port
even though it was totally irrelevent to the port they were doing.

They even ignored protests about fixing the names used in their port on
the grounds that there was some obtuse logic behind it all (which only
they could see).

Finally an injection of new blood and some small flames later sanity
returns to file naming conventions.
