Yes: they even listed a "correction". Unicode (and Emacs) seem to have
a mechanism in place for a code point to have more than one name (I
don't know whether there can be more than two, though). So perhaps the
only thing to cope with is that the mapping name -> code point isn't
injective (whatever that means for your approach)?
