But you can always explicitly prepend the Package name
to a function name!

But I think the main problem here is that the client has placed his
FTP module also into Net, obviously with the intention to *replace*
Perls own FTP module. I don`t think this was a good idea in the first
place, and should be done only if one is sure that the new module
is really an extension of the old one (which is not the case here).
Is there a way that you move the client`s FTP to a different package?
