id-utils (1996) seems to predate libuser (2001), so it's
unfortunate that libuser picked the clashing name.
It goes back pretty far.  From idutils.texi's history node:

     First posted to comp.sources.unix in September 1987 under the name "id".
     "mkid version 2" was posted to alt.sources in 1990.
     Renamed to id-utils in 1996.

The honest solution would be that libuser renames it utility to luserid. ;-)
