In the interactive debugger, this is achieved by prompting for the symbol in whose favour the conflict should be resolved; for programmatic use, the `sb-ext:resolve-conflict` restart should be invoked with one argument, which should be a member of the list returned by the condition accessor `sb-ext:name-conflict-symbols`.
