That was the original intent of the prefix, but we somehow managed
to drop the 't' (I don't think it was deliberate). AFAIK, there's
just one file that uses the rwt_ prefix. The rest of the driver
uses rw_, so I'd say changing it would definitely be very invasive.

>> The names of some test suite headers start with the {{rw_}} prefix (such as [rw_alarm.h|http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/stdcxx/trunk/tests/include/rw_alarm.h]) but others don't follow this convention (e.g., [21.strings.h|http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/stdcxx/trunk/tests/include/21.strings.h] or [driver.h|http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/stdcxx/trunk/tests/include/driver.h]). For consistency, we should add the {{rw_}} prefix to all test suite headers that are missing it.
