I don't think this is a problem with mod_userdir. mod_userdir solely maps requests with a user component in them (~foo) to the appropriate user's directory. mod_suphp (not stock Apache) is what then subsequently uses the user discovered during that phase to suexec as the right user. However, when you use the alias, mod_userdir is not involved - there is no user component in the requested URI for it to get involved, and so mod_suphp does nothing. I don't use PHP, let alone mod_suphp, but looking at the docs, you can specify explicitly the user and group to run as for a specific location or directory (suPHPUser_Group). You will have to do this for any location/directory that you want to alias away from using mod_userdir.
