In some cases, each variant of English considers one spelling correct and
others wrong. In this case, as far as I can tell, each variant of English has
a "preferred" spelling but permits the other spelling and considers it
correct. If you want myspell-en-us to only include the preferred variant,
feel free to tag this wontfix. Otherwise, please consider adding the less
common but still valid spelling.
