Using the '+' character in filenames may not be the best idea.
Is this really a problem?  I thought '+' was supported just about
everywhere ...  (There's filenames containing '+' in the GDB source
repository, for example.)

I would be inclined to avoid '+' myself, not because of the filesystem, but because of potential tcl/dejagnu regexp hell. (Yes, it can be worked around, but it gets annoying when 54 backslashes in a row is not enough :-) )
