package

When using the MnSymbol package, pdflatex gives two font warnings:

LaTeX Font Warning: Encoding 'OMS' has changed to 'U' for symbol font
(Font)              'symbols' in the math version 'normal' on input line 120.

LaTeX Font Info:    Overwriting symbol font 'symbols' in version 'normal'
(Font)                  OMS/cmsy/m/n --> U/MnSymbolF/m/n on input line 120.

It turns out that this is probably due to a clash with the AMSSymb package.

Since I need just a few symbols from the package: is there a way to load one symbol from a package, in stead of all?
