I don't know, I personally get the impression that "silo-llnl" could be
the LLNL variant of the SPARC boot-loader.
Since this is not the case, I suggested "llnlsilo".
Of course, "llnl-silo" could be chosen, as well.

Anyway, since you are the owner of the ITP bug, you get to choose the
package name, with the constraint that name conflicts must be avoided,
obviously...

Bye, and thanks again.
