instead of initializing base_vars with the original's vars, initialize
vars itself. this has two consequences:
- there is no need to call read(0) to initialize vars
- one cannot usefully call the complex read() anymore, as that would
re-initialize vars from base_vars
this is much closer to an actual copy than the previous "seeding with
existing project".
