#--------------------------------------------------------------------
# Workaround for the problem that xyce does not like having "vt"
# as a subcircuit parameter name, because it is a xyce reserved
# name.  Change the parameter name in the one file that uses it.
# This script is not robust, and depends on the fact that the
# one file that declares "vt" does not have any corner model files,
# and the characters "vt" do not appear in any other context.
