why does "bk init" call "init"?

  don't ask why i was trying it, but i just noticed that running "bk
init" actually runs the system "init" command.  this strikes me as not
a good thing, particularly since the helptool entry for "bk"
explicitly says that:

 "All BitKeeper commands are prefixed with bk in order to avoid
ambiguity with non-BitKeeper commands that might be on the system such
as get and ci."

p.s.  whoops, i just noticed that this seems to be the case with *all*
commands that aren't official bk commands.  is this deliberate?
