if a [send] object and a [coll] have the same name, "coll" seems to be getting all messages put into the [send] object as a message and thus reporting an error on the command line.
this is very unfortunate, but using a separate symbol table for colls would break compatibility, because Max does not allow to reuse coll names in sends and receives.
I don't understand why this is very unfortunate, and what do you mean that Max doesn't allow it. By "reuse" you mean use that symbol for a different purpose? So the compatibility issue would be because people do send messages to a coll using [s] with the name, as is commonly done with [table]s? am I getting this right?
