I don't think we can simply defvaralias in this case, since
directory-listing-before-filename-regexp is not used the same as
dired-move-to-filename-regexp was.  Please compare the code of
dired-move-to-file-name in v21.4 and in the current CVS, and you will
see that these two variables are not equivalent.
