There are no inconsistencies in filenames.

We just use the name of the product (to find it easily) and some other 
information to differenciate them (version, buffer overflow ...).

Filename is *not* something to rely on; name, decription, id, summary 
are made for that.

So apache_2_0_52.nasl could be plugin_14803.nasl or even 
whatyouwanthere.nasl .

So there will be no changes for that.
