I gave this another thought.  Now we have facility to name multirange
types manually.  I think we should give up with underscore naming
completely.  If both replacing "range" with "mutlirange" in the
typename and appending "_multirange" to the type name failed (very
unlikely), then let user manually name the multirange.  Any thoughts?
