Subject: 24.1; `substitute-command-keys' does not respect `defalias'
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2012 11:10:14 -0700

(defun foo () "foo" (interactive) (message "FOO"))
(defalias 'bar 'foo)
(global-set-key "\C-d" 'foo)
(substitute-command-keys "\\[bar]")
 
The last sexp returns "M-x bar".  It should return "C-d".
(substitute-command-keys "\\[foo]") returns "C-d".

And if you do (global-set-key "\C-d" 'bar) instead then the
problem is the other way around: `M-x...' is shown for `foo'.
 
`substitute-command-keys' should not give the impression that
either the command or its alias is not bound to a key when, in
effect (for users), it is.
