Hmmm...well then how about finessing the issue? Replacing two lines in
australasia with five:
*** 7.57/australasia Tue Aug 8 09:34:13 2000
--- 7.58/australasia Tue Aug 8 09:34:13 2000
***************
*** 1,4 ****
! # @(#)australasia 7.57
# This file also includes Pacific islands.
# Notes are at the end of this file

we then just leave the yearistype stuff in place as is as an escape
mechanism for those who might need it.
