'-', '/' and '=' are not breakable if the next character is numeric.

But the last case (2007-Aug-02) is not saved by the rule. Should we also 
check whether the previous character is numeric?

Note that if *authors* hope that the text should not broken around 
hyphen, they should use non-breakable hyphen (U+2011).
