On the topic of binaries, there's going to be another patch renaming them.
Those will have no aliases as it's trivial to work-around (symlinks, shell
scripts, etc) and not so trivial to implement in a portable way.

I'm used to workflows with lots of small commits, so I was not able to
force myself to include all of the renames in one diff.
