This is a design flaw that will be fixed eventually. There's a std.io
module in the works that will eventually replace std.stream and
std.stdio. Unfortunately it's at a roadblock right now.

For the conflicts, you could try using 'alias' to disambiguate between
them, or any of the various import aliasing tools.
