Neither Google, Bing nor Google Code Search can find any occurrence of
any of the two words in either spelling, except in our tree, of course.
This leads me to believe that at least no known Open Source project will
be affected by the change. But that doesn't say much.

Is this a non-backwards compatible change that we can do when going from
9.x to 10.0? I'm fine with backing it out, too, if you think this will
actually break anything for third parties. Just say the word.
