http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/langcodes-search.php lists "gsw" as
an ISO 639-2 Language Code for "Swiss German; Alemannic; Alsatian". 
So I guess that's the case now.
Also, http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main/ also lists a
"gsw" file and no "als" files, plus a "gsw_CH" variant.


Summarizing the rest of the issue, as I've spent enough time here now anyway:

Comment #16: Opinion of Clemens Kienzle:
> "Gsw" right now does not stand for all Alemannic dialects, and 
> als.wikipedia is NOT exclusively a Swiss German edition!

Comment #20: Clemens Kienzle quoting the answer by SIL:
> no evidence was provided that swg, gsw, wae are treated as a single 
> language in some contexts *sigh*
