No, we prefer PRGNAM in the build script and the .info file
to be the same - granted, it's only really for the sake of
automated tools and such, but it's not too much trouble to
keep them in sync.

The right way to do that would be this:

SRCNAM=$(printf $PRGNAM | cut -d- -f2-)

Note the "-" after "2" to grab field 2 and any later ones.
("echo" is certainly acceptable instead of "printf" though)
