This is an excerpt from comp.lang.eiffel where i asked this kind of
question:
[http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.eiffel/browse_frm/thread/6e8a36b854049a70/fa4ed2592f8e139a?lnk=gst&q=qoocku&rnum=1#fa4ed2592f8e139a]

cluster: "cluster_path"
    adapt
       other_cluster:
          rename X as XX;
       another_cluster:
          rename X as XXX;
       a_third_cluster:
          ignore
    end

This renames classes with the same name in different clusters so that the
original cluster can refer to them both with different names,

This is the case of ISE Eiffel LACE dialect.
