I thinks this should work. Can you test it?
(define-coding-system-alias 'utf8 'utf-8)
(define-coding-system-alias 'UTF8 'utf-8)
I think if this is to be fixed, it's in Emacs
(lisp/international/mule-conf.el). I don't know if it's been discussed
before (I did a search, no results except for some BBDB issues) so I'm
CCing emacs-devel as well. The fix seems reasonable to me as a user
convenience. It's very unlikely it will cause problems. But I don't
know for sure, so please tell me if I'm wrong.
Ted
