Yes, it still does not work with linux-image-3.2.0-4-686-pae (3.2.57-3)
and also with linux-image-3.13-0.bpo.1-686-pae (3.13.10-1~bpo70+1).

This problem affects modules for all ISA PnP cards, e.g. snd_sbawe on one 
system.

The aliases are there but something (udev?) ignores them:
# modinfo snd_sbawe
filename:       
/lib/modules/3.13-0.bpo.1-686-pae/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-sbawe.ko
