How do we want to handle this?

Do we want to handle this?

If we want to handle this, we might do so *before* the next release.

A reasonable reaction would be to use a different name for our tool, as 
tcprelay uses it for some time now.

I personally don't use tcprelay, but I can imagine that some packaging 
tools may have problems with this conflict.

I could rename our tool to something different. Unfortunately, I don't 
have a good idea for a different name...
