I added some code to check this, and it triggers on almost all
locales. But I am afraid we need to allow more i18n years, as there
have been drafts out for several years, and all of them have used the
current year in the keyword content.
I guess this list should be ok:
posix:1993
posix:2002
i18n:1999
i18n:2000
i18n:2001
i18n:2002
i18n:2003
Perhaps posix:* and i18n:* would be a safe choice for now? The value
do not seem to be not used for anything at the moment.
