That argument is purely theoretical, though, since no one has complained
to us of an *actual* collision. With these utilities having been around
with their current names for more than ten years, I think we've
established sufficient squatter's rights on the names ;-).
You have right on linux/*bsd world where postgres is squatter :-) for long time.
But in Solaris world (and probably in HP-UX, AIX...) postgresql does not have
established these squatter's rights. And names as "createuser" is something like
reserved keyword for OS utilities.
