time ago by cleaning up excess usage of "equiv" lines in the .ext
file output. The hierarchical extraction code did not distinguish
between node names which were output and those that were not,
requiring a setting "extract do aliases" to force all node aliases
to be output with "equiv" statements. So hierarchical names
might be any alias, whether output or not, and "merge" and "cap"
lines might contain references to nodes that were not output,
causing them to be disconnected nodes. This fix handles the
"extract no aliases" (default) case by flagging node names that
are redundant and not output, and not creating hierarchical names
with them.
