Oops, that was a leftover hack that was supposed to check that all names were the same,
and was missing ==1 at the right. Replaced by using self.name. Sorry. There's probably
more, but the overall idea should be clear. Using **kw is also a leftover of starting
down the trail of handling more signature variants, but I was too lazy.
