Means the same thing. Officially the American Civil War was not a war according to those that believe only "a declared war" is a real war. Since the US Civil War was not a "declared war", its officially designated as the "War of the Rebellion" and/or "the war between the states." By this definition, no wars have been fought since WWII; America's last declared war. And don't forget, the US Civil War wasn't a war either! (According to those "not a declared war" people). To answer your question, the Vietnam War has always been called both, even during the 1960s.

No need to "over-use" that "undeclared war..." term. If folks go by that term, people will begin to have troubles defining the American Civil War (aka US Civil War); for, much to the chagrin of Civil War buffs...the Civil War wasn't a declared war either. And by the way, the Civil War was officially called the "War of the Rebellion" (NOT the Civil War). One more note: there hasn't been a US declared war since WWII! So who won the Vietnam War? North Vietnam won the war!
