Yeah.  It appears that this was prompted by a desire to match ISO style
going forward.  I wouldn't be against that necessarily if we were
keeping the keywords and not getting rid of them.  But since we are
going to get rid of them going forward, I think what we want this
conversion to do is match what's in the historical tarballs.
