What is the proper place to put a command that is part of/depends on
two packages.  We have a command called imxv that is an imtool but
is used to display under X10.  We now have an X11 version.

Should we
	1) have two commands in the im package (requires new different names)
	2) have a seperate package (large hassle)
	3) put a command in each of the x packages (ask to...)
	4) something else

Thanks,
	Lindsay
