Assistance required for namespace clash

[csmall@eye-net.com.au (Craig Small)]

G'day,
  I'm the maintainer of the procps package. The latest version has a
binary called pgrep (short for process grep).  Unfortunately this name
clashes with a binary in the pgrep (perl compatible grep) package.

Two packages with same binary, a policy violation (i got 3 serious level
bugs about it already).  The pgrep in procps came second.

I can change pgrep to another name.  The problem is that pgrep is a
reasonably standard name for a process grep program (such as in some
Solarises). 

I'm not sure what should be done here. Obviously one has to change its
name. I really don't want to harras the pgrep maintainer.  If I do
change it, what do i change it to? procgrep?
