Arrayjob vs array conflict

Question

I'm using the arrayjob package (to have an array data stucture) and I just added the more known array to have a vertically centered table (text+pictures).

I get an error and seems it seems the array package is executing the \newarray command (defined by arrayjob).

Usage (to declare a new array named \Correct):

\usepackage{arrayjob}
\usepackage{array}

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\newarray\Correct  % This line triggers the error
\end{document}

Error:

`! Package array Error: Illegal pream-token (C): 'c' used.

even though I did not find a \newarray command in the array documentation.

Anyone has seen this problem? Any ideas can be done to solve it?

A cursory glance at arrayjob.sty shows it defines a macro \array so it would be incompatible with LaTeX in any case. The same directory has an arrayjobx.sty that says

% * 05/03/10 - Version 1.04
%              + Change the name of the macro \array to \arrayx
%                to avoid conflict with macros in the amsmath package.
%                Change suggested by Michael Sharpe (msharpe at ucsd.edu)
