This was a mistake on the core development end. We called the theme "Twenty
Ten" but committed the directory as twentyten, and released 3.0 like that.
When we went to put the theme in the repository, we realized we had a
problem.

We couldn't rename the directory for obvious reasons, but we also pass the
name around in the code quite a bit too, so that couldn't change. (We're
working on moving more and more things to the slug.) Thus, we had to hack
the theme directory to allow the exception.

I've seen the TwentyTen title before and assumed it was just a persistent
cache issue. Maybe I'll take a look at some point.
