...with other programs that are already in /usr/bin. There was nothing
decided about clashes with programs that exist elsewhere in the vast and
unknowable realm of the rest of the world.
We are certainly not going to go demand DTrace be renamed because Gentoo

project integrated. (I'm not kidding - I actually got a bug from them when
I put DTrace probes into Xorg.)
