   All the ones I renamed were.

I forgot one thing, however.  For the patch I sent to work for an
alias, the alias needs to be defined when .emacs is read.  That means
that for the patch to work, all alias declarations for defface'd faces
that are not defined in pre-loaded files should be auto-loaded.  The
same is true for variable aliases for defcustomed variables.  I
probably should put a note about that somewhere in the Elisp manual
where it talks about variable and face aliases.

Sincerely,

Luc.
