Some advice for them: alr3, crossdes, faraway, and HH don't use a namespace. This makes them very vulnerable to this sort of interaction, because they don't get to choose where the functions they use come from. They should add one. In my opinion, all packages should have namespaces, and I'd like to create a default one if the author doesn't. (The default would be: import what is listed in the Depends clause, export everything.) I don't think this will happen for 2.7.0, though package.skeleton might start creating one.
