I found doorstop or YAML or something did not like the ++ in a file name so I
switched to using xx.

What about librtemscxx? This means the library and spec file names match?

I decided not to copy the same name because it could incorrectly be associated
with the old library.

It was easy. I did notice when I followed the eng manual's guide to adding a
test the created build type was object and not test-program and that confused me.
