This really wasn't intended; I didnt' think of the interaction with
pattern characters in the suffix.

How about this patch: it changes the meaning of the suffix style to
`don't expand if there is a suffix, unless that contains something
exapandable'.

I still think there is a better name for this, but I still can't think 
of one.
