Below is a suggested patch which I won't commit without a positive
reponse first. Any alternate suggestions to the parameter name
_cmd_variant and the tag name variant particularly welcome. Is it unwise
to change the existing use of the tag `version' - I'd be suprised
if anyone has configured this in a style.

I've changed _iconv for an example of how I think the renaming of
_is_gnu should look like. An alternative to this would be to ditch
_cmd_variant and get _netcat to just do _comps[nc]=_nedit.
