Ouch, I really missed this one for a long time. :-(
(I didn't understand the workflow correctly and overlooked the reviews.)
I apologize to everyone who has been involved!
Finally I'm back here and re-did my patch for 3.4 this time.
I followed the comments

After some interesting hours of work (learning about tests) I created a new
patch, including my original code changes as in the former patch and the new
additional tests as well.

Just for my understanding:
Even the current development/testing version: Python 3.2.2 rc 1 (August 14,
2011) isn't new enough here?
So I'll have to find out how to install Python 3.3 in parallel to my 2.7.1 (on
Fedora 15).
Starting with hg

No. (Where does the quote come from?)

Cloning http://hg.python.org/cpython#default will get you

Attached a patch against Python 3.3
All the existing tests are still running successfully.
But I wasn't able to add additional tests for the new functionality.
Writing proper tests is a bit over my head for now - still learning

I attached a patch against argparse.py from Python 2.7.1.
Subcommmands can now be abbreviated as long as they are unambiguous.
Otherwise an error message 'ambigous choice' will be thrown (like the 'invalid
choice' one).
(It's my first patch

Since there seems to be no means to edit (my last) message a little followup
regarding aliases:
I found http://bugs.python.org/issue9234
argparse: aliases for positional arguments (subparsers)
That one is for version 3.2 and already closed
Christian Ziemski cz...@gmx.de added the comment:
I just made such a change to Python 2.7's argparse.
If there is interest I'll post a patch here.
Unfortunately I can't find the description how to produce a proper patch.
The link I found (http://www.python.org/dev/patches/) gives an error 404
