That's crazy. Rename your class and be done with it. It's such an easy
fix. One way:
* Either use grep or your favorite text editor to open all files that
refer to either Pager class. For example, using cygwin on windows:
grep -rlE 'new Pager|new YourFakePearPagerName' . | xargs -i ep {} &
(replacing ep at the end with the name of your editor)
* Search and replace in all files YourFakePearPagerName with
XXXTempPgrName
* Search and replace in all files Pager with NewNameForYourPagerClass
* Finally search and replace XXXTempPgrName with Pager.
* Save all files.
It took me longer to write this email than it would have taken to solve
the problem once and for all.
