Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment:

The alias was added by Hye-Shik Chang:

http://hg.python.org/cpython-fullhistory/annotate/887ce39f95f2/Lib/encodings/aliases.py#198

I've added him to the nosy list.

If the alias don't match, we'd have to add a codec for the mismatching encoding 
to maintain compatibility (provided the mismatching encoding is still in use).
