Add Windows-31J => cp932 alias? Windows-31J ever used?

Hello, gentlemen!

Have just stumbled over

Name: Windows-31J
MIBenum: 2024
Source: Windows Japanese.  A further extension of Shift_JIS
        to include NEC special characters (Row 13), NEC
        selection of IBM extensions (Rows 89 to 92), and IBM
        extensions (Rows 115 to 119).  The CCS's are
        JIS X0201:1997, JIS X0208:1997, and these extensions.
        This charset can be used for the top-level media type "text",
        but it is of limited or specialized use (see RFC2278).
        PCL Symbol Set id: 19K
Alias: csWindows31J

in the IANA registry. Looks like cp932, does not it?

 Add Windows-31J => cp932 alias?
 
 Just mention in Supported.pod that cp932 has been registered
 as Windows-31J at IANA, but as this name is not used Encode
 does not recognize this alias (in the section on naming
 mess) ?

My best regards, Anton
