The new names are used in HTML 1.2 ( https://www.w3.org/MarkUp/draft-ietf-iiir-html-01.txt) and later (and recode generates them correctly for those versions too, though recode only recognises version 2, not 1.2). I'm afraid I can't find a spec for HTML 1.1 online; it seems to be so old that it's not really considered a standard at all, and in any case there's no reason to be using it. I'm reluctant to make any changes without definitive documentation: looking at the code, this coding in recode has not changed since recode 3.4 in 1994, and François Pinard was pretty careful about this sort of thing (and both those letters are in his first language). -- https://rrt.sc3d.org
