Thanks to whomever added all of the alternate spellings, I apparently forgot the "official" spelling... but they seem to all be aliases at least

Yeah it's not your fault. There is an issue here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/51699

If I didn't know any better I'd say they're doing something like rustc --version then copying that directly into format!() to generate the URL.

I'm just gonna leave this here...
