OK, the module variable is assigned via the fix_variable_name shell function,
which reads

  fix_variable_name() {
    echo -n "$@" | tr '[:punct:]' '__'
  }

I logged in to ipvslogin, which is a SunOS 5.10 machine, and tried the tr
command there

======================================================================
fahlkejt at ipvslogin:~$ echo abc.,#\'_-+ | tr '[:punct:]' '__'
abc.,#'_-+
======================================================================

The problem is that SunOS does not automatically extend the replacement
sequence to the length of the matching set by repeating the last character in
the replacement sequence.  The solution is to extent the replacement sequence
explicitly:

======================================================================
fahlkejt at ipvslogin:~$ echo abc.,#\'_-+ | tr '[:punct:]' '[_*]'
abc_______
======================================================================

This fix is in revision 5395 of dune-common.  Please check if it works and
report back.

Bye,
Jö.
