_pick_variant distinquishes the program variants by running them,
usually with an option such as --help. The Solaris pkg seems to take
over a second even when doing 'pkg version' so in this case, I would
simply put a test in using $OSTYPE.

The only other name clash I'm aware of is nc (netcat or nedit client). In
that case _netcat uses _pick_variant and calls _nedit.
