Yes, and I doubt they will change the name. In fact, I expected problems like this since 'stop' really calls for name collisions.

Thanks.
Are there any other ideas/suggestions for a new name of stop out there?

What about `scltop' for "snmp command line top"? This name would kind of reserve the "scl" prefix for all programs contained in the stools package. I am not sure I really like this name - except that it has little probability to collide with other names. But on the other hand, the whole package could be renamed to `scltools' to resolve another issue someone raised with one of the meanings of the english word `stools'...
Any comment?
