The conflict resolution on cmu should have handled this for you, try selecting
the change for the user name and add the alias after the user has been
importing.   My guess is that when you tried to change the user in the cmu.xml
file you didn't change the key that conflict checks for which I believe is the
username or userName field.  

Yes, I am still mainting CMU when I get the chance.
